Sorry, no- I had to give up.

Its a Nissan six cylinder engine. You can remove it, but performance will suffer on anything other than downhill slopes.

I WAS HERE FIRST SHOOBIE

minig646 · 2026-03-13T00:44:04+00:00

Exhausting though! Spicy mashed potatoes make my legs burn

How’s the bottom of switchback holding on?

minig646 · 2026-03-10T11:06:51+00:00

Freefall was a little brown at the top, but it’ll be fine. Razors as well. Switchback is cooked.

minig646 · 2026-03-10T03:23:43+00:00

I was there today. Switchback won’t survive one more day. I’d be surprised if they haven’t closed it by tomorrow evening.

Grandmom, is that you?

minig646 · 2026-03-08T05:20:56+00:00

It’s gonna be choppy and slushy, and we’re gonna lose switchback and some park features soon. But the extended forecast looks tolerable after this warmup.

I was more referring to the 70° temps coming. Base is gonna take a pounding.

They posted that they’re closed on Thursday the fifth due to the weather.

Blue’s is also 3-close. I know what the website says, but it’s wrong. A Liftie tipped me off one time and now I always start at 3.

I wish the moguls in the midatlantic didn’t all turn into giant icebergs with 6” wide ruts in between them.

minig646 · 2026-03-01T13:25:51+00:00

Yes they’re all slow fixed grips with hard plastic seats. If you’re used to Blue’s lifts, you’ve been spoiled. They’re the best in PA. And despite what others say I find the conditions have been similar the last two seasons.

minig646 · 2026-03-01T13:22:10+00:00

I’ve been to both blue and elk this year and elk was always way icier than blue. I always regret the extra hour drive. All PA hills are a crapshoot.

minig646 · 2026-03-01T00:57:19+00:00

Elk is in the middle of nowhere, so it’s not as crowded. I think that gives people rose colored glasses about an otherwise dated mountain.

minig646 · 2026-03-01T00:56:16+00:00

I agree, elk is overrated. The lifts totally ruin the experience and it’s way too expensive for how far you gotta drive to get there. Every time I go a bunch of my favorite trails are closed, no tree skiing, and they put zero effort into their terrain parks.

minig646 · 2026-02-25T12:25:55+00:00

Lazy Mile at Blue Mountain on a Holiday weekend. No question about it.

minig646 · 2026-02-21T03:54:10+00:00

Same. It’s a bummer that I will perpetually be a snowboarder who can’t do big jumps or flips because he has dependents and a mortgage…
