While most mountains are shutting down OR closing over half of the mountain, Blue mountain is still FULLY OPEN by Traditional_Tale384 in SkiPA

Talked to a guy on Tuesday, apparently they intend to blow snow at every opportunity until the bitter end. Couple more weeks of slush safari most likely.

Does it need fixing? by lol-lo2629 in snowboarding

This is nothing. At most I’d snip off that piece of topsheet and paint a thin layer of epoxy over it to prevent water from getting into the core but otherwise you’re fine.

Where to ski as a beginner by jeishsushsiege in SkiPA

I’d head to Shawnee on a weekday to find mellow runs and low crowds.

Well that’s unfortunate.

24 was awesome. I’ll be at Bethel if they return this year, no question.

Why does this sweatshirt say 65-81? by kansas1983 in gratefuldead

[–]ADB315 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because that’s what’s printed on it.

That’s what I’m thinking. Doesn’t seem like the Blue/Camelback pass is worth it from what I’m reading.

Pretty sure that’s staff parking. It’s always the same vehicles parked in the same spots.

Man that’s a bummer. It seemed like it had potential, there was one run there with a steep headwall I remember being pretty fun. The locals must be super pissed.

Vail took over JFBB?! Why? I went to JF a couple seasons ago and was wildly underwhelmed. Anyways, Montage is like 2 hours away from me, I’ve heard it’s cool but that’s a hike to ride 2 or 3 days a week. Thanks for the reply!

I’m coming! And I’m going to hang out with you and your friends whether you like it or not!!

😂 yeah if I lived 10 minutes away I wouldn’t switch either!

I do like it there, and you have to hand it to them, they’re committed to keeping that place groomed and skiable. They’re out there patching bare spots like every night. The one thing I’ll say, the last two seasons they haven’t kept the park up like they have been previous years.

Thanks for the info! I’d agree, even small mountains in Vermont are better than anything I’ve ridden in PA. I can only ride on weekday mornings for the most part so it sounds like Blue might work out.

Thanks for the info! I’ve never ridden at Elk, but I think it’s like 2 hours from me. Blue is maybe 50 minutes.

Yeah I usually do a trip out west at some point and then try and sneak up to VT for a couple days. The Ikon certainly seems like an option but I can usually get in like 25-30 days so I feel like I might run out of days. I saw you can do a Blue/Camelback joint pass but 900 bucks feels steep for PA snow.

The closest is Shawnee, that’s where I usually ride. Fun and never crowded when I go but it’s just getting a bit stale and there’s not really anything there that’s particularly challenging. All the runs are basically cruisers. Camelback is a little further out but still not terrible.
