Popular Post Johnny Law Posted January 19 Popular Post Report Posted January 19 Rode this morning with AS, JfDan and nick. Roads are way too clean so kinda busy first thing. Maybe an inch at blue or more, there is 3 or so in the ding so I'd imagine there is more on the way for blue. Conditions as you would expect are mostly excellent, lazy and dis are set it and forget it though lazy is a little slow. Coming Soon the headwall again was a bit ratty but super grip to let them run some. Upper main is very good though as you move down it gets firmer and more washboardy. I didn't ski Widow after yesterday but JF said it still needs more time. They hadn't finished pushing razors so none of that was open. Blowing on NMDW, le chute and maybe Challenge though I only saw the top gun on. Tomorow should be le tits assuming it isn't overrun by front platers and all of Delco. 11 1 Quote

With 3 lifts running, a season pass holder lane, moar terrain, and cold blustery weather to keep those platers at bay, this weekend is lookin pretty swell at the True Bloo 1 Quote
C1erArt Posted January 19 Report Posted January 19 (edited) Widowmaker wasn’t too bad, a little disappointed with Main Street but it was ok. Hate to say it, but the best run of the day was first run of Paradise. Too afraid of the crowd on Lazy to try it, especially after they opened Challenge lift. Lines were building up before they opened it. Lower Paradise was packed later coming off of TCS, but OK if you stayed next to the right side trees. Crowds got too much for me about 11:45. Desperately need Switch and Side opened. Had some coffee in the lot under my back hatch. Edited January 19 by C1erArt 5 1 Quote

JFskiDan Posted January 19 Report Posted January 19 Very fun rare mid week morning for me. Really nice to see snowmaking progress from the past week. Big gains. Pretty busy by 11:30, just lapped lazy after the others had to go do that work BS. Lazy was kind of 3D by then and super fun, other than watching for the masses of people on trail. Falls was nice too. Hopefully cuzie's/raceway/widowmaker will be a little nicer tomorrow, it was just kind of typical of the Blue cycle of grooming right after opening a trail, skiable but marble-y. Midway was pretty nice. NMDW has more snow on it than Challenge, but hopefully both will be open before the end of our nice snowmaking stretch. it will be really nice to do the lefty-righty down NMDW again. Hopefully they dont put park BS on there for the 15 people at Blue that do that. Nothing sucked about today. 6 Quote

DiMe Posted January 19 Report Posted January 19 Just got back from a morning sesh at Blue The True! I didnt rush this morning because the snow started late and grooming also ran late so no feel of FOMO. I arrived at 9:45am and it was snowing at a decent rate all morning and it was gooooood. Gate finally dropped on Razors about 2pm and I wrapped it up after that after 13 laps. Crowds just kept growing. All in all JADIP 3 Quote
DiMe Posted January 19 Report Posted January 19 I will add despite the growing crowds the VIP line was open and they were counting heads at every lift keeping it well organized. I dont think I waited more than 5 min at peak. 2 1 Quote

enjoralas Posted January 19 Report Posted January 19 (edited) 6 minutes ago, DiMe said: Did @enjoralas keep his skis on his feets? Indeed. I think I did fall once on this, but did not take the skis off. This is the T-bar line. EDIT - full disclosure, skis were off when I fell. But you can see me clicking back in to finish the run in the video. Glad I ran this then -- can you get there with the new lift house tucked in tighter? Edited January 19 by enjoralas 1 2 Quote

Enjo and I have had some interesting adventures around Blue during powder days. I got stuck in the Burma woods and it sucked trying to get out. We did successfully ski the bike park in the middle of the mountain somewhere which was probably the gnarliest terrain I've ever been on in the northeast, definitely in PA 1 Quote
