saltyant Posted December 11, 2022 Report Share Posted December 11, 2022 (edited) @GrilledSteezeSandwich JFDan's report is missing a lot of cruicial details. What time did you arrive? What conditions were the sky's? What was playing on the radio? Who was in da' house? Which trails did you ski? What were the conditions? Were they are death cookies, ice spots, moguls, root rollers, or any obstacles on the trails? Were both lifts running or just one? Were there any lift breakdowns or frequent stops? What time did you ski until? Did you hang out in the parking lot? Did you put any meats in your mouth? Were any beverages consumed? Did any crazy drivers come through the parking lot? Were there a lot of people from Jersey? Edited December 11, 2022 by saltyant 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post indiggio Posted December 11, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 11, 2022 Best ski day so far at Blue this year, not sure what @Benm was smoking, but I wish he would share! Ok, substitute @GrilledSteezeSandwich post, since I'm currently drunk from sitting in the upper lodge for too long with @tarponhead and bar toad Keith. Arrived in the lower lot around 7:20am with little fanfare on the ride up. Nobody in the house at the moment, save Rodney and myself. Maybe @Dirtwolf in the PASR row, but not sure to some light flurries. 32' at the top, 34' in the lot. Bumpers started showing up a tad later. In line, snow started falling a bit harder which made for some nice ambiance. 2nd civilian chair with @Dirtwolf maybe? I don't remember. The snow was nice and grippy and no SP to slow you down. Paradise had some similar snow with a few ice spots here and there. Burma run was more/less empty but too much effort going over that far. Rode the Vista to see if anything else was done up top: nada. Did have a chat with a SP who pulled up. He said they were told definitely by the end of the year, if not before. Rest of the day was mostly hard flurries and lapping the ridge on Coming Soon and Paradise which was a ton of fun and some intense thigh burn. Kept @tarponhead out for 18 runs and then retired to parking lot and Last Run Lounge for beers. Did see @momskeeztoo was down on lower Coming Soon, but she said she was fine over a beer at Last Run Lounge. Still "snowing" here in H-town as I type this. 8 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbike-ski Posted December 11, 2022 Report Share Posted December 11, 2022 Ski’d with MrsS from about 11:30 to 1:00, snow was good viz not so much, skiing in the snow is fun! First Tele Sunday of the season 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Law Posted December 11, 2022 Report Share Posted December 11, 2022 Today was Baskin Robbins, you got all 32 flavors in one run. The snow falling was super nice but we need another way down. Coming soon was good but the only real pitch is almost always compromised. Still super good weekend 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought BenM was being sarcastic in his response to PA Ridge and actually meant that he missed a really great weekend of skiing.

Maybe he can join you on your Colorado trip. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TFTI but Ben has repeatedly told me that he has no interest in going on a ski trip because he can ski in Northeast PA. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Mixilplix Posted December 12, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 12, 2022 I thought it was better than yesterday....Lower Paradise was starting to get a little spicy for my skiing talents so called it....Took a run down the conservative side of TCS and found it kinda slick ...and Burma was OK but a little slow...Even though things seem a little stale terrain wise I think Blue has done a pretty god job with coverage and we never had to park in the top lot...Happy to be on the snow again... 9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momskeeztoo Posted December 12, 2022 Report Share Posted December 12, 2022 I had some kind of crazy fall on Coming Soon. Perhaps a snow snake? Not sure. Minding my own business on the icey head wall and all of a sudden sliding down, in a split. Came to a stop with my knees splayed out. And I’m like how the hell do I get out of this ?? It could have been a disaster to my knees. Thank you Rossignol FKSs now known as Look. Rolled over and gathered myself up. And on down the hill. It did take awhile. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people on here could ski the Poke n Oes every day but Im generally good with skiing 90 minutes per week.
