Blue Mt or Camelback tomorrow?

For the NJ locals in this thread - Mountain Creek had some sweet powder bumps this weekend on Zero G and Upper and Lower Straightaway. Haven't been to the Creek in years, but I saw moguls on their report and decided to hit it rather than driving the extra two hours to Sundown or Hunter. I bought a twighlight ticket and shared the bumps with no more than two or three people at a time. Most of the time I was the only one skiing them. Surprisingly awesome time at MC.

Nice to hear! Fear of crowds - and youngest daughter having PA ski pass - keeps me away from there for day trips, so cool to know it's not always packed.

Off the east side of Frost there is some steep, but short, tree skiing. For what it is, I like Jack Frost. It's even smaller than Camelback, and with less steeps, but its usually crowd free, and the snow is probably some of the best in the Poconos. There is tree skiing in PA but its a rare occasion when its actually ride-able.

Yeah, we went back this weekend. Great time. JF is pretty satisfying.

Don't want to lead you astray - the bumped up runs were not crowded and the line for the gondola thing was never more than 5 minutes or so, but the main intermediate run from the top of Vernon looked to be pretty busy and I was nearly taken out no less than three times in the slow zone near the line for the gondola thing by idiots straightlining the runoff. That being said, it was great for anyone in NJ looking to bash some powder bumps close to home. I would still advise anyone looking for groomed cruisers to stay away.

Excellent - thanks for the heads up!

I hate that Cabriolet (Gondola wanna-be) at Mountain Creek. Glad you had a good time!
