Hey All,

I'm back from a fun morning session at Blue mountain. I arrived at the lower lot around 7:12AM and Knuckle-Dan was already booting up. By the time we were scanned in at 7:30AM there were at least 30 people waiting to hit the snow. Temperatures began in the mid 20s under bright sunshine. First run was down Challenge which is groomed on the left and Moe Gohls on the right. Nice fast yet soft cordoroy..Then a a fast run down Switchback..turning only where the trail turns to the lower park and over the mad steezy whoop dee doos. Around this time Toast, Noxidee, and Noxidees brother Rick joined us and we did a speed run on Paradise..then a fast run down Switchback and then Lazy mile. It's always fun mobbing down the trail in a pack of 5 fast skiers and riders.

Noxidee then went and got his camara and we spent several runs in the park. Noxidee got some shots of me getting mad steezy air off the seconds booter, the steps, and the little jump by the cement mixer. Crotch grab spread eagles were thrown by both me and Toast. Knuckle-Dan got some huge air off the booter before the wall-ride. I'm looking forward to seeing the pictures later this afternoon. By 9:00AM liftlines were getting long enough for the liftline organizer to be out there and by 10:00AM there were full corrals at both the 6-pack and the quad. Toast bolted around that time and Knuckle-Dan and I skied a final run through the park and then a run down Paradise. On Paradise I cut in front of someone and he rode right off my tails and he apparently had a pretty good yardsale..lol..When I left at 10:30AM there was a huge line of people getting scanned in and about 30 people in line for the ski check. Razors was closed again due to races.

By the time I left, the temperature was in the mid 30s but the snow hadn't turned over to spring conditions yet and there were a bunch of icy spots. Me and Knuckle-Dan hit up the booter mountain drive-inn and this time I had fresh sausage with my eggs. Noxidde and his brother and two of their friends were at the next table over. Despite the crowds..it was a really fun session and I manamged 16 runs in 3 hours.

Holla
