Trip Report:
Another great day at Plattekill. A few inches goes a long way. Not as great as last weekend when a little hiking produced big results. But we had soft snow most of the day. Once again Plattekill turned a blind eye to the closed trails and everyone was on them. By the end of the day they just took the ropes down. Amazing how little snow is required when you do the off season work on the hill. Really smart of them to not hassle everyone over the closed terrain. It sets them apart from the local competition.
As usual I got treated to one of my favorite sites. A parade of cars driving west on 28 and every one of them turning left into Belleayre leaving Plattekill to the lucky few. I know it is not ideal for Plattekill revenue but it's good for us.
