I ski the Catskills primarily, mostly for the shorter drive (and the past two seasons I think better snow than Vermont). I get a season pass to Catamount for the family. My 3 kids are all under 10 and Catamount is a good place for them. Crowds are small, parking is close to the lodge and the skiing is decent for them.

I put a fork in the season on April 21st at Killington. Skied Superstar in the morning and spent the afternoon making a few trips over to Cascade which had great skiing and made the trip. Everyday after today I am one day closer to next season.

Welcome aboard.

Wappingers Falls, huh? A neighbor...I live in Hopewell Junction.

I went to Catamount for the first time in 35 years this past March...just my luck, I had a free ticket but they elected to close for the weekdays starting on March 13, the day I went. So I wound up back at my home hill, Hunter, for the day.

Never did use that free pass.

Catamount gathering next season! Catamount is a great place to ski. Decent pitch and some nice bump lines. The new summit quad next season should be an improvement. Welcome selski.

Hi all, just joined up at the suggestion of a friend. Ski at Wachusett a lot, also at Berkshire East. Skied 59 days last year - I'm into it! 53 years old, started skiing at 36 and totally dedicated.

Hope to meet and ski with some of you next year.

Steve
