NO HILL FOR OLD MEN

Posted on October 6, 2022 by Peter Minde

“Man, you always make the best faces at the finish line,” laughed NENSA
competition director Justin Beckwith at the finish of Sunday’s Climb to the
Castle.



Utterly fried, I gasped for air. Someone asked if I needed help getting out of
my roller skis. I shook my head no, even though back pain had made it difficult
to clip into them down at the toll gate.

Another sufferfest on the Whiteface Mountain toll road. Just one hill; how hard
can it be? Five miles, an eight per cent grade, 2300 feet of vertical. Unlike
the previous year, mild temperatures, negligible wind, and dry pavement should
have made for a good race.

ORDA SKIER VISITS (UPDATE 2022)

Posted on October 3, 2022 by NYSkiBlog

Following are updated numbers for ORDA skier visits and revenue for New York’s
state-owned and operated ski areas as reported by the Olympic Regional
Development Authority in the most recent annual report.

For the first time in the 2013 annual report, numbers for Belleayre Ski Center
were included.

As of the 2010 – 2011 season ORDA had not reported skier visits for Gore
Mountain. In the 2018 report, there was back data on skier visits for Gore
dating back to 2013-2014, so a data gap remains for the two previous years. In
addition Whiteface revenue numbers were revised upward by over 20%.

PLATTEKILL TREE SKIING WORK DAY 2022

Posted on September 28, 2022 by NYSkiBlog

Plattekill Mountain and NYSkiBlog are stoked to present the twelfth annual
Plattekill Tree Skiing Work Day at the ski area in Roxbury NY on Saturday
November 5th, 2022. Raindate will be Sunday the 6th.



The tradition — first born in the mind of dedicated NY skier — lives on. We’re
recruiting a motivated, smiling crew of lopper wielding powder hounds to
continue our maintenance of some of the Catskills’ best tree skiing.

Our longterm goal is to clear as much terrain as possible under the legendary
double chair. As regulars know, Plattekill is committed to helping skiers pursue
their passion and find great lines all over the mountain.
