method9455 Posted March 17, 2006 Report Posted March 17, 2006 Hey guys I'm a Mountain Creek local/season pass holder but they're done for the year, so this weekend I'm either heading out to Shawnee or Blue mountain. I'm leaning towards Blue becuase I'm going south next year to University of Delaware and it will probably be my mountain of choice, so I want to check it out this year. BUT - Shawnee is where i learned to ski and snowboard and theres a nostaliga attached with going back for the first time in like 5 years to end off my high school snowboarding where it started years ago. Anyway, i'm thinking shawnee sunday and either cutting school tuesday and going to blue, or making it up next weekend. What are blues hours next week and what are the chacnes they'll be open next weekend? Or should i just screw it and go to blue this weekend becuase i've never been there before? Quote

Go to Blue this week, get a pass and they'll give you have off on your next visit, then go next weekend as well. Conditions aren't too bad. Quote
parkbuilder Posted March 18, 2006 Report Posted March 18, 2006 free lift tickets to anyone in costume sunday at shawnee... plus a reconstructed park, less features than normal, but wicked fun. Quote
method9455 Posted March 19, 2006 Author Report Posted March 19, 2006 I decided shawnee 3/20 and blue 3/25, i've been planning to go to both for a long time, but since i'm bringing a few peolpe with me i should reward them for staying open later than mountain creek, every little bit helps Quote
Shadows Posted March 19, 2006 Report Posted March 19, 2006 Wow we're going to have Mountain Creek represent at the booter.. awesome.. as well as CB, BC, shawnee (i think, i havent been paying attention) and montage Quote
sexkitten Posted March 19, 2006 Report Posted March 19, 2006 maybe Blue should put in an 8 pack... Don't give them any ideas. Quote
skierdaddy Posted March 20, 2006 Report Posted March 20, 2006 Elk will be staying open until April 2nd. Skied the last 3 days and it was excellent. It snowed off and on all day today and they received several inches. Felt like january not march.. They also made snow on several trails this past week.. With the cold forecast, the skiing and riding will be nice for the next 2 weeks!!!!!!! Quote
method9455 Posted March 20, 2006 Author Report Posted March 20, 2006 well i'm like 75% sure i'm switching my pass from mountain creek to blue mountain next year based on everything i've heard but i have to have a day to check it out. I'm moving south and Blue and Bear Creek will be about the same length but I need my free rididing too so I think Blue it is. Its just so damn expensive, I'm used to my $100 unlimited MC season pass, and its like $300 AHHHH Quote

Last year, for a student, an all day pass was $322. It pays for itself in like 10 visits Quote
method9455 Posted March 21, 2006 Author Report Posted March 21, 2006 $100 for me, I work at a local shop, I was stoked with $100 and the rest of hte guys were so mad becuase last year it was $50 or something rediculous like that. I went 30 days to creek on it, and then got 1/2 price lift tickets at Tremblant for 4 days and saved myself about 100 bucks canadian. It was a great deal, and it sucks to pay that much any where else. Quote
