I left at about 8:06 when they shut the 6 pack down. I ran Razors even though there was a stupid "rAcE tRaInInG iN pRoGrEsS" sign despite not seeing a single person on it all night. Boy, did Razors suck the big one tonight.  0 stars out of 10.  Wao!

I do agree. You can't close the trail off completely and say full open. I was annoyed by that too.

At least you didn’t poach it to find out it’s the worst conditions on the mountain 😂

They’re claiming full open and 40 trails and you can’t even access that little Pioneer Pass trail I talked about last week, so . . . 
 

Pops and I skied by it last weekend for giggles after getting to Widow and seeing an actual closed sign. Giant canyon between Vista and the “entrance” and a Closed sign between two of the zip line support polls, lol

Unless it’s roped off, or a closed for racing sign, I’d consider it open. I think they post RIP cause there are ramps with poles. I asked a patroller when the sign first went up and he said it was ok to run it. As long as you don’t drink a beer while on the slope. [emoji23]

I felt like a total badass and was looking behind me for the ski patrol cops. I was ready to hightail it out of there and drive my Sonic in my ski boots on to avoid having to watch a safety video on why I shouldn't poach a ski trail that's closed for the invisible race team.

Maybe Pioneer Pass is just hike to terrain  now. Blue is stepping their game up in that case. Exclusive earn your turns trails are a feather in the cap Palmerton's top tier resort.

Great idea. Start kids young learning to hike and earn their turns.

That's the first step. In a few years they will turn the overflow parking lot into a Nordic center

Ah, so they can eventually do away with lifts, yet still charge you full price.  Sneaky!

Looks like I’m out for at least four weeks. Tried to do too tight of a turn going too fast on the big left-hander on sidewinder, skidded out and wound up just off the trail on my back. Cracked rib and several cracked transverse processes in my lower back, no real therapy needed just time to heal. Cat scan and back brace. Good season while it lasted, sucks to get old. See you next year.
