Popular Post GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted January 12 Popular Post Report Posted January 12 Hey All, I’m back from another fun morning at Blue mountain the true mountain. I arrived at the lower lot before 720am and it was 28 under partly sunny skies. There was quite the back up for first chair on the OG six pack with a couple hundred people already in the house. Sexond civilian six pack, and I skied challenge first which was a western groomer. I repeated that again and still real nice the Sidewinder which was nice. Main Street was already, a little pebbly in the middle. Coming soon was ok but very busy and lower paradise was wall to wall people. I skied sidewinder again and wasn’t that good kind of thick and icy aka frozen and loose granular. Lazy had nice snow and I ended the session with Chute which was pretty smooth. Fun parking lot and was taco Sunday which was radical. All in all crowded but nice snow conditions at least initially. I’m gonna try to come back tomorrow for opening cause the weather looks real nice and work will be there later. JADIP 10 1 Quote

Then it became a zoo thanks to Camelback, so I quit and sat in an Adirondack chair drinking coffee and ran into Grilled Steeze Sandwich getting off the mountain. Then I ate some tacos which were grate 3 Quote
Johnny Law Posted January 12 Report Posted January 12 First couple were le tits, maybe even better than yesterday but it lasted all of 20 mins and my lord the crowds. It was busy by 750 which has to be a record. I thought nmdw was the best but probably anything early was excellent. The mowed down the little riser on switch which is mad disappointing but I doubt blue was thinking of my boost. The true star is today was the tacos, super props to enjo, they were banging and there is nothing like great food and shooting the shit after skiing. 8 1 Quote
RidgeRacer Posted January 12 Report Posted January 12 Fun day but man the crowds were crazy today. Conditions were top notch for the first few. All in all a good couple of ski days this weekend! 8 Quote
C1erArt Posted January 12 Report Posted January 12 Looked like the whole mountain was freshly groomed. Compounding the crowds were BMRs a little too enthusiastic on lower paradise and home stretch. Glad to see features are off trails end. It was crazy there a couple of weeks ago. 3 Quote

PSUFrankenstein Posted January 13 Report Posted January 13 Greek was a mess first thing...apparently they only run the quad for the first hour or so and all other lifts open later. I'm sure next weekend at blue will be crowded but I'll be there anyway 1 Quote

FrntPL8rScott Posted January 13 Report Posted January 13 Switched it up a bit today - Forewent chariots of fire down razors and hit sidewinder first run / perfect carving cord / funneled perfectly to lower sidewinder at speed - then switchback all to myself / mixed it up and completed the entire tour/de blue (with exemption of smooth shave) - awesome conditions on every trail - hats off to Nick and Blue Mountain operations - nice job on snow production - bailed at 9:45 , 4 Quote

mute1080 Posted January 13 Report Posted January 13 Snow was great but the crowds were in full force. They should have been matching people earlier to keep the lines down but liftie Bob said he didn't the employees to do it. Enjo continues to outdo himself which the foot. The tacos were great and little Boo enjoyed all the olives. 1 Quote
