Hey All,

 

I’m back from another fun morning session at Blue mountain the true mountain.  I arrived at the lower lot at 737am and it was 25 degrees out under partly sunny sky’s with light winds.  In the house were Jimmy, Harold, Bethlehem Ford Guy, Atomic Jeff, Johnny Law, Salty, Mixilplix, Airhead, Rodney and Oz. 
 

There was quite a gathering for opening bell at the OG six pack and definitely a good amount of people starting on Paradise.  Paradise had pretty nice snow on the first 2/3 and then solid and uneven the last section.  I did a repeat of that then took a very icy Super summit safari six pack to easy out to vista midway to lower Main Street.  Midway was super slick and lower main had decent snow but very dark.  Did a repeat of that and then over to Lazy mile which reopened today. 
 

Lazy mile was the classic cookies beginning with small once and getting larger then the last section single track and slick.  I skied midway to lower main again and paradise again and then peaced out.  Conditions were worse than opening weekend but luckily the guns are cranking on the falls, Razors, learning area and some random spots.  
 

JADIP

 

Today's condition report didn't have Lazy checked as open, I wondered if they were closing it to use the cold temps to get 36hours worth of snow on it to widen it out for the weekend, but I guess they just forgot to check it.

I'm the outlier for sure but I thought today was pretty ok. Lazy was classic blue but midway to lower main I thought was a hoot though midway does have some glacial spots.

Dis was coming apart run by run,  each time you got more and more cookies especially as you moved down the hill.  

Way way way too much water out there but not alot they can do. It was super nice out,  good peeps and ok skiing not too much more I can ask for on the 13th.

It was open early on and then they closed it. It was probably the worst asteroid field I've ever skied on.

I skied 2 hr. til 11:00 am. I only saw Mixilplix in the ski and ride parking lot at that time. I guess everyone else drank their Yoo Hoos early and went home.

Powder day!!! If you were good at hunting. 
Chute was off the hook early then the middle went to shit and kept everyone off . Upper Chute woods were good for some powder turns and side ditch was fun.
Lower main side country was great by the gun. A 1000% improvement from yesterday had a blast today. 
9-12 

I noticed the quad bull wheels on the ground 🫤although it was encouraging to see them blowing snow on coming soon at 12:30 when I left. I’m thinking they must have a resolution not too far in the future if they’re blowing snow.

The Laziest of Miles was closed down by 10:51 am. Here I am below befuddled by this travesty. I really wanted to ski my Elons over a mini boulder field.

Did you ski it earlier?  I saw a salty lookalike on the lower section but he wasn’t skiing on Ellens

It wasn’t terrible just was the worst of the four days I’ve skied so far on conditions. I’m still glad I went skiing

   Around 10:30 -11ish I noticed that they had shut down a majority of the guns...and when I got to my car the temp read 28...Which trail you went on depended how much you were willing to put up with ,,Midway to LM was really nice...Lazy was kinda spicy....Saw PSU Frankenstein and took al lap with him.Then saw Salty in the lot....

  Really good day for mid Dec...Weekend should be good...

Ski patroller on the lift said the lower section of Lazy was too narrow and unsafe so they shut it down. Said they would try and get the falls open tomorrow to get some of the faster skiers over there. Also they were waiting for a part for the quad that won’t be delivered until the new year. 
 

Upper section of midway got real skied off by noontime. Did a lot of Paradise runs today.

Yep, Lazee Mile was pretty awful. Probably the worst conditions I ever did see. Correct, ski Rip Sticks or nothing!

Projections on their FB say Falls is open tomorrow, but has a “race.” I’m guessing it’s practice

Sidewinder park big dawg booters and a bus just give us nightmare dreamweaver. 

I would not be opposed to moving the big park back to Sidewinder but I have no pull.

Their Instagram or some shit said falls opening at 1. I'll be long done skiing by then. Gonna be garbage anyway since its fresh. 

Unrelated, my condolences to the quad chairs in front of the razors guns that will be there until next year.
