Amazing. I thought the only thing Elliot knew about snow was that it occasionally showed up on his limo. There may be hope for the future state of New York skiing after all.

Awesome..it would be cool if they added some terrain off the backside down to Belleayre beach...That would be mad steezy vertical for sure. Belleayre is my favorite in the catskills..

The only part of that that is interesting to me is:

State acquisition of 78 acres at the former Highmount Ski Center to be integrated into a westward expansion of the state-owned Belleayre Mountain Ski Center, and a NYC Watershed conservation easement on 200 acres of nearby lands.

That part sounds great, I look forward to the expansion of the ski area, hopefully it won't change the mellow vibe of the mountain.

You gotta be kiddin. If they put in expensive townhomes, golf course and all the other stuff in the articles it will completely change the vibe there. How could it not?

I said hopefully it won't change the vibe but I expect it will. You always gotta have hope.

Never went to Pine Hill for lunch. How do you get there on skis? On the trail map I see some hiking trails going to pine hill.

I am only asking if it has been done, not how it was done. I was just wondering who to speak to. The how is a face to face thing on the mountain on our way to lunch in Pine Hill.

"So...how exactly did you get lost on The Glen?"
