Did anyone here ski Plattekill after last week's storm? I read over at TGR that the owner fired up the lift for those who showed up to hike for turns over the weekend. Pretty cool if you ask me! :beer:

Never met him, but the owner does seem pretty cool and down to earth.

That's actually the one place in Southern NY I'd really like to try. I hear it's Mad Riveresque

If they did, then we went to the wrong Catskill mountain. I'll check to see if that's true.

According to my contact at the mountain, this is 100% true. Wow. Would've been sweet to get in on that!

I thought I read that somewhere (the part where they offered to run the lift for a fee), but I couldn't remember where...
