The 25% cap on lodges - in my mind- kills the season. If the winter is like the summer, where people are buying gear and doing all this outdoor stuff and now a ban of VT travel, NY skiing could be extremely busy and making it worse is not being able to go get ready in the lodge. I pretty sure...

It will be interesting to see if ORDA can even open the ski resorts this year. Agree or disagree but Cuomo is locking stuff down...remote learning for SUNY Colleges after Thanksgiving, negative results if you travel to NY (being enforced by more police and now the National Guard). It would be...

https://cbs6albany.com/news/local/capital-region-skiers-are-gearing-up-early People buying ski gear early - article about Alpin Haus in Clifton Park. My friend's son works at Alpine Ski Shop in Saratoga - he stated the same thing. He also added that people are buying skis and gear regardless of...

I've been all around there - but never stopped in - next time I will

Hell yeah ....my fat ass would buy a sled and tear up the forests like a drunk redneck ....just "send it" !

Would that be a bunch of sticks and a person with diminished mental capacity ? Those 3 words were staples in my childhood----if I didn't have those words, I would have not talked most of the time.

I have young kids and one time we ate at a table that underneath was covered with bags - we had no where else to go, we were in the cafeteria and our bags were stacked on the shelving in the other room. I think most of our food ended up on top of the bags underneath us.

I have enough angst getting to lodge early to avoid people in normal circumstances and every lodge I have been at lunch time has been an absolute cluster with fighting for place to sit. For this to work - you need reservations / limit the total amount of skiers. I keep telling myself - why am...

Mt VanHo Cliffside Coaster - $65 a ride !!! Are you kidding me !?!?

HA ! I said the same thing to my wife ---i said if you take a step back and really look at it --wearing a mask in public makes perfect sense.

Yeah - same thing at Whiteface ....same people, less sitting spots ---like playing musical chairs. If you are keeping with all the rules that apply to most everything else - you need to reduce capacity, reduce the amount of people at any given venue - you need to put cap on skiers. If the...

Last I heard - is that you go on the Gondola with who you agree to. They won't pack you in or fill the cab. Same with chair lifts - you ride with family, friends, people you agree to. I would imagine this will lead to longer lines.

Not to get political - while I am not a Cuomo fan - i think his fast, decisive action when this hit saved upstate NY. I think he did the best action he could and it helped. I agree you cannot overwhelm the hospital system or you are in big trouble. But I still feel at this point, we could be...

Pandemic every 100 years, it's natures way of culling the herd.?

Isn't the mortality rate like 2-3% and the majority of those deaths are people classified as "high risk" ?

I'm fat - i wanna sit ?

Elvis's death - my mom was a mess - i was pretty young, but that's the first livid memory of something "big" happening news wise.

I had a talk with a Whiteface employee - skiing will be very different this year. They are still trying to figure out how to deal with people's ski bags, the cafeteria, how to serve food, how to sit people and how to run ski programs. They still need to figure out how to reduce the capacity of...
