Hey All,

I'm back from a fun-filled session at Blue mountain. I arrived at 7:12AM and the temperature was in the mid 20s under overcast skys. By the ticket scanners were Nastar Glenn and Phillycore ready to grill up some steeze. We first skied Razors and then Challenge..both were very nice with a skiff of new manmade snow. We then ran into Bob likes cats and Sexkitten and skied Switchback and Lazy Mile with them. Then some more Razors action. Challenge was closed for the race team today from 8-10:00AM. Me, Glenn, and Phillycore skied a run through the sideinder park and I definitely got a little off balance and out of conttol off the whoop dee dos.

On the topic of park riding..Justo, Kate, TheRealKt, and some other Jibsters were all representing the piz-ark. I also taked to Park Crue leader Keith from the 6-pack and he was rocking a clipboard..he must have been up to something official. We skied all over including a run down Burma to the Main Street chair and also a run down Raceway to chute(experts only terrain..lol) to lower Main Street. The Main Street bumps now have lots of ice in the troughs so after a quick foray into them..I bailed out onto the grooms. The film crew was out in full force getting stock footage of people booting up and the ski patrollers acting like hot-shots.

One run on Challenge a patroller was responding to a call on challenge and ate shit while fulling a tobaggon on the upper section and both of his skis popped off. He slid a solid 200 yards. Bob and I both grabbed one of his skis and he was covered in snow and incredibly flustered. Then further down there were two patrollers assisting a snowboarder who was off in the woods. He must have got bit by a snow snake and went ass over tea-kettle off the trail. Near the end of my session we ran into Matt Reynard who apparently lost his I-pod. Then a final run down challenge and then I had brunch at the Blue mountain drive inn with Bob and Sexkitten. Bob chowed down on a short-stack, crispy scrapple, and chocolate milk...Sexkitten was hitting a white egg omelatte with toast like it was the Rollercoaster box..and my plate was rocking some bacon and eggs..with my coffee being topped off more than the patroller at the bottom of Main Street was blowing his whistle. All total I skied 18 runs off the six pack and one off the main street chair for 19,700 vertical feet. There were alot of people skiing but liftlines were pretty short. There were lots of cars and buses rolling in when I lift around 11:00AM..All in all a fun morning session with a bunch of PASRs..
