First time ever. I was solo and got there 9AM. Missed out on the "1st 100 people only $15". So I payed the full $30 :razz: Talk about your money's worth! Powder under a thin crust. I sucked in that stuff so did not do the true glades, did some bike paths though. Fun stuff. Blockbuster was ungroomed or relatively so and was a heap of fun. Run of the day for me. Otherwise, groomers were in stellar shape. Called it quits at 3PM and headed back. Note to self; no $%#@#@ NJ parkway on a Friday evening :smash:

Place is real mom & pop low-key. Vibe was awesome. I see myself returning there many times. My boys will be in tow next time.

One of my favorite places for me and my kids. Will be there on sunday :) Love the quietness and laid back vibe...been skiing there since i was about 10 yrs old...seems like it has never changed.

Glad you had a good time. I've been going every Friday recently. I couldn't ski the crust at all yesterday... or at least so poorly it was no fun, but the trails were great. They've done a wonderful job with the grooming this year.

On a side note: I picked up a value card good for 1/2 off full price Fridays (I tried but they won't go 1/2 off on $15 days) and its been completely worth it.
