Blue mountain...2/16..no AZers

Hey All,

I'm back from a nice morning session at Blue mountain. I arrived at 7:15AM and there were already a decent amount of cars in the lower lot. A minute after I arrived, Toast showed up. Toast and I first skied Razors which was very nice with some fresh manmade on the top 2/3 and an uber fast homestretch..we then skied Switchback which was also sa weet to the lower park which still has the fun whoop dee dos. Then Justin and the realKevinThomas joined us and we did a run through the park which had lots of fresh cord and the park-rats were raving about how nice the lips were. Then Toast went to get his park skis and I skied a run down challenge with KT and Justin..they both skied challenge switch.

On homestretch I sw somebody out of the corner of my eye tucking and trying to catch up to me and it was Matt Reynard who was skiing with Nastar Glenn. I haven't seen Nastar Glenn in quite some time and he had alot to say about his trip to Utah. We mainly skied the bumps on Main Street which had fresh manmade and were uber forgiving, Switchback, and Challenge. I only skied lazy mile once. One run the film crew from the Reality show was filming a patroller and I yelled "Reality Shows Rock"..Speaking of patrollers..Nastar Glenn and I got whistled at on Paradise and we weren't even going that fast and I was in a turkey tuck. Me and Matt Reynard were giving gapers points based on how they were dressed. One point for straight skis, one point for rear entrys, a point for a fannypack and a point for a one piece skisuuit or hunting jacket.

Crowds were much lighter than expected and there was never any liftline beyond a minute or two for the 6-pack. Around 10:20AM I was getting hungry and bailed after 18 steezy runs for 18,900 vertical feet. I hit up the Blue mountain drive-inn for some delicious fresh sausage. Temperatures were in the upper teens and low 20s and there was actually a wind-chill warning..lol..Conditions were excellent and even when I left..there were only a few icy spots and the mountain was Sugar-Free..but definitely not Sucker-free..lol. I'll be out again tomorrow for Dawn-patrol and to hang with papateeze..Holla
