Can anyone give me some decent trails close to Hunter Mountain??

Depends So many factors, What's your family situation. If you have kids there will be a time when they have obligations at home sports, social , school. How far is the drive. I had a place at Hunter and sold at a slight loss , never regretted it as it gave me 15 years of great times. The...

I am sure there are serious costs, but Hunter has put up two new lifts with greater uphill capacity than it had in the past. Everyone who skis there on the weekend knows that Belt gets way too crowded and that there are many intermediate skiers on the trails where they shouldn't be. Frankly by...

Btw look at the map the zipline is on Hunter property, why can't a blue trail be cut around there, would take an incredible amount of pressure off of Belt Parkway???

Huh, what you talkin about Willis?

Sorry guess I meant to the Right of K27

Blue from the top of Hunter What about way over to the left of K-27 and under the zip line??

The Slutsky's vision and dedication to the mountain and early recognition of snowmaking as essential for an Eastern resort is legendary, but the guys are getting up there, I also noticed somewhat less attention to detail, It may well be simply the crappy weather which never allowed the place to...

My group is already planning next years excursion out West. Most are good skiers or boarders, but a few are getting up there and more comfortable with groomers. The younger guys are pushing for Jackson Hole, the groomer lovers are not adverse to some powder or bumps but prefer not to be in them...

I knew I shouldn;t have said that , but if you can't see the difference between Limbaugh, with a 10 million Watt megaphone, and listeners and a job as a jock to shock and the guy in the video who is just doing his thing , then you've skied trees once too many times without a helmet.

Doesn't make it right, this guy didn't ask for this, years ago he could have been mocked by his friends at an apres ski bar, now he's all over the internet , and self righteous posters are mocking him, for what buying more than one camera's, or the brace, working out. If you know the guy and...

What am I Rush Limbaugh? I wish I had the cojones to wear a helmet cover with antlers or viking horns, but given my level of skiing I'd end up bullied on the internert.

I wasn't trying to make fun of them but compare this guy to them. I guess posers was the wrong word. we all have our affects. Some guys wear silly helmet covers, some guy go all out tech with camera's etc, Mad River and some other places people revel in going super old school on equipment and...

How much different is he from the posers at Mad River who dress super old school, fur hats, wool pant's and gloves, and if the guy is doing some extreme skiing maybe working out with your gear would be the best way to get inshape. In the Army [long time ago] they made us run in full packs and...

So he has his reasons, great, dude's going to Alaska, give him some props, cyber-bullying is the worst type of invasion of privacy.

I find this video offensive. So the guy gears up extreme. Maybe he's got his reasons. Posting this stuff on the internet simply to ridicule someone who has done you no harm is the most extreme type of cowardly bullying.

Both good to know, While good bathrooms are nice, Snowmaking is where it's at. MRG just closed after pretty sketchy season, no matter what they say it is tough to survive without snow making even the Western resorts were blowing this year to stay alive. Hunter ain't Vail but it is close and...

Friday was a bust because of the weather, Hunter has always survived because of it's snowmaking. there have been some complaints this year, Having a leg injury in early January kept me off the slopes. I'd love to know if they blew decent cover even given the weather.

I wonder if they will make the 8th, some heat coming this week. My biggest complaint was several Thursday and Friday nights very cold and no blowing. I know it was a tough season but if it's 10 degrees out get one trail covered with fresh. Top of Clairs could always use some attention with...

Most decent intermediates can ski Hawkeye or Chatiemac. Rumor's and Lies are steep at the top and can be a challenge. Try the new trails at Burnt Ridge , long and empty,
