Wondering who has skied Blue?
A lot of people in this area have skied it. It's the closest lift served skiing for a couple million people.
I've skied it, maybe 5-10 times.
I can understand why they don't have tree skiing. Natural snowfall, in a normal year has got to be minimal.
As I recall, they do have an good snowmaking capacity relative to the amount of terrrain.
I'm sure this will open me up to criticism about lack of flexibility etc. But I rather do laps on Sagamore at Gore all weekend (or whatever they've been blowing on) than face Blue Mtn. If there's a serious dump (18+) they've prob only got a few trails with enough pitch to be fun. And if you can get there, it will be insane.
I'm certainly not down on small local hills. But I don't think I'll ever go back to Blue.
