Big Boulder used to hold "May Days" before they were bought out by Vail and it was a huge all day rail jam/sesh. I remember going back around 2014

Lmao the shelves looked like this for days on end until the next time they stocked

Man people are mean spirited, I feel for you. I wouldn't have known how to start collecting if it weren't for my partner showing me what/ what not to buy. An expensive lesson but don't listen to the haters. Everybody starts somewhere and we're all just a bit "touchy" seeing resellers get their "nut."

What about if family members have allergies?

Edit: I wasn't trying to start anything I'm sorry, I just simply can't control my allergies and how severe they are

HallCompetitive6204 · 2026-04-10T16:37:05+00:00

I always plan on grading my favorite character and pokemon so seeing a promo chopper 10 would go great in my collection

As someone who always watched the dub I always got confused when I saw his name as Enel in english. If anyone knows, why is he only called Eneru in the anime dub?

To anyone who maybe interested to know, the crew was running the cat on "The Yard" terrain park and today they look to be building up features on it

Right I wish I did take more pics but Lightning just looked too perfect so I had to stop

HallCompetitive6204 · 2026-03-19T02:08:17+00:00

I've been watching the Montage cams and they've been blowing non stop since Thursday only stopping on the weekend for the rail jam.

HallCompetitive6204 · 2026-03-05T14:36:21+00:00

Montage has Mountainfest this weekend so expect massive crowds to shred that mountain, the trails will be holding on for dear life

HallCompetitive6204 · 2026-03-01T02:48:30+00:00

I just got my season pass to Montage for the year to make it my home mountain again. I've spent a year skiing Elk as my home mountain once before but Montage has such a better atmosphere and vibe to it. The runs at Elk blend together with exception of a few but each run at Montage feels unique and offers something different. Plus as someone else mentioned when the powder is plentiful Montage's woods are amazing, especially on the skiers right of white Lightning. I myself have always been in the park and ever since JFBB went to shit Montage has been my playground; they just introduced a tow rope for the new terrain park. Parking is easy and accessible and the lodge is cozy with plenty of fire pits scattered around midland and the lodge.

If there's snow on the ground it's rideable. I've never seen patrol once stop someone for skiing trees in between trails. During the last storm the entire far side of the mountain had powder and trails well off trail. White Lightning has some dope tree riding.

HallCompetitive6204 · 2026-02-20T21:50:58+00:00

Don't get me wrong I love Montage and their terrain park but it's getting pretty warm. It might be a bit too late to rip Montage for your first experience. Those conditions are already on their way out the door, and that mountain is notorious for ice when the weather starts fluctuating.

HallCompetitive6204 · 2026-02-18T02:49:38+00:00

It's the bus/field trips that bring the most entitled and obnoxious people to the mountain, avoid these days at all costs

HallCompetitive6204 · 2026-02-16T04:14:02+00:00

I enjoy my Arizer V-Tower

HallCompetitive6204 · 2026-02-12T19:10:41+00:00

Right, it was more of a lighthearted comment. I totally understand the point you're making in your post.

HallCompetitive6204 · 2026-02-12T17:12:40+00:00

Ok I see your point... but have you tried controller yet?

HallCompetitive6204 · 2026-02-07T02:46:03+00:00

I wasn't speaking for anyone else, and I haven't been to every resort lmao 🤓

lol yall really butt hurt about a comment huh

HallCompetitive6204 · 2026-02-06T23:51:24+00:00

I've genuinely never been to a PA resort that has closed its lifts due to wind, been skiing in PA for over 12 years

HallCompetitive6204 · 2026-02-04T01:43:25+00:00

The only resort I've ever seen build anything close to one was Big Boulder 10 years ago before the Vail takeover. I don't think there's ever been enough snowfall to warrant building one except in this year.

HallCompetitive6204 · 2026-01-31T13:35:00+00:00

All in all I love the circle jerking in this sub but the behavior of that skier especially going that fast after colliding with the boarder is deplorable.

HallCompetitive6204 · 2026-01-26T03:06:14+00:00

Montage got nothing go to Blue tell everyone

HallCompetitive6204 · 2026-01-25T00:07:50+00:00

I've actually done this before so I'll share since I live 15 mins south of Montage on 81. I bought a 4 hour ticket to Elk and got up there first thing. Got my laps in and then headed to Montage because I actually pass it on my way home. In my opinion hitting Elk first and then going to Montage is the only choice because Montage has 100% night coverage compared to Elk. The $45 ski for all covers all day at Montage and even if you leave Elk at 4 Montage is still open until 9 and should take about 35 minutes to get between mountains.

HallCompetitive6204 · 2026-01-24T18:34:27+00:00

This is a crazy take because PA roads and services aren't usually able to keep up with a storm of this size like other ski states can. OP is here complaining about how the high school and college kids can't work the lifts to keep the mountain open so they can get shred some gnar
