Not to be the Debbie Downer, but i still see a ton of work to be done. Its one thing to just hang all the pieces up, but another to actually make them all work together. Quote

They could have them together in no time... its everything else thats going to take time. 1 Quote

The other new 6-pack in the Poconos has been up for months, and they are still working on it daily. Still excited to see more than dirt on the webcam tho 3 Quote

Gonna get some old forge after a pretty long hiatus. I need to road trip up to old forge. If Ed white is there maybe he’ll give me a tour of the White House. Dave Portnoy gave all the old forge pizzas like a 6.8. I wonder what he’d give Allentown pizza places. Edited October 21, 2022 by GrilledSteezeSandwich Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted October 21, 2022 Report Posted October 21, 2022 On topic, Blue can host weddings and events a little later into the fall out of the summit lodge and skiers and tubers park and ski at the bottom where all the infrastructure is. Remember before how early season we could only park in the top..bottom for ski shop only…well maybe it will end up being the reverse early season..bottom only for parking at least. Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted October 21, 2022 Report Posted October 21, 2022 I hope some film crew is around to film the assembly of the super summit safari six pack it’s gonna be Lit…two weeks from now it will be almost finished. These are legit contractors they build a Buffalo Wild Wings in a month. 1 Quote

Lot of fog out there, but also activity around the towers staged in the learning area, so maybe they are going. @Benmneeds to keep us updated on the radio chatter so I know whether to keep checking in. 😉 Quote

Larchmont Posted October 26, 2022 Report Posted October 26, 2022 That's some *old* Arecos replaced. I believe that #1 in the picture and #2 at the Falls/Home Stretch/ Paradise/Razors merge have both been retired. The TT10 is a lot more gun than the Areco, also - it should be able to flow ~150 GPM or more, where the Areco could move maybe 80. Though the TT10 can also put a lot more snow on the Challenge gates... 1 Quote
