Blue Mountain

This is the Blue Mountain ski resort outside of Palmerton, Pennsylvania (although there’s nothing very ‘blue’ about it). That sure is some excellent snowmaking facilities they’ve got though! It might be interesting going skiing or boarding and looking out at a brown, snowless landscape as far as the eye can see…

    i worked at a ski resort in nh this winter, and it was definitely strange driving to work and seeing a mountain with snowy trails but barren trees.
