3/29….a warm one

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

Hey All,

 

I’m back from another fun morning at Blue mountain the true mountain. I arrived at the lower lot at 720am and it was in the mid 40s with a little lingering valley fog below partly sunny sky’s. In the house was everybody by NMSki, VTMark, Phillycore, PSUFrank, Toast, Root, Zonked, Nancy, Barb and Sibhusky. 
 

Started out on the quad and skied Challenge first which was pretty bad..super uneven solid ish snow and divots everywhere.  Paradise was better and getting thin..down to the base snow so pretty fast.  Lazy mile was pleasent as was upper Main Street..lower a little choppy but not as choppy as yesterday AM.  Crowds seemed worse than yesterday AM. 
 

After about an hour and fifteen minutes we went into the lot for a beer and chips then went back out around 10am and I skied Razors which was getting nice and corny..I didn’t ski the bumps as I didn’t want to re-aggravate my knee but apparently they were good. They looked tight to me.  I also skied Paraweaver and Dreamweaver was thick but well covered..I skied a vista to Burma and left side of vista like a four foot base and right side below the pond skim a four inch base.  Burma was holding on, I like skiing it when empty.  I finished off with another razors and back to the lot around 11am…no more beer and peaced out shortly thereafter with a stop at chic fil A on the way back.  
 

Ski most of y’all tomorrow.

Fun morning. The valley was deceiving temp wise early on as, on the lift ride up about half way up, it felt like the beach. Fun spring ski day regardless and the amount of snow still on the mountain, on March 29th (while others are now closed for the season), is downright impressive. Blue does a really nice job of pushing snow around. Will be interesting to see what tomorrow looks like after 80 degrees today. 

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

It was 75 degrees when I left Blue and peaked at 80 degrees on route 22 but that’s always a couple degrees more.  81 currently in the A and 72 at Mount Pocono…gotta be 77-78 on the hill I wish a PASR who lived close could put in a dern werther stertion I’d even throw down a $35 bill

 

Its definitely not high of 36 low of 26 like it says on Blues website.  That was close a few times..kind of like how a broken clock is right twice a day

According to my car, 20 minutes from blue but within eye sight, it’s 81.

Firm conditions first thing made for some fast laps...TCS was super fun and you could carry all the speed you want rollin on to LP..Razors was a little crunchy on the headwall but you could let it go after that...Some glacial ice on Midway...Warmed up nicely and the snow held up well..Great coverage and conditions for the end of March..

Is skiing still a thing? WJW. My skis are waxed and put away in storage for the summer.

Turtle man was in the house later on and Ripped razors lol. 
Even a bump attempt lol

Skied razors mostly and ventured over to watch a run or two. Amazing at how long the skimming line was. Rode the six once more to ski sleepy hollow, just had to hop one patch of ground. Bump crew gave up around 2:15 ish Awesome job from Blue this year!
