Spring Skiing in NY is here.
This long Phallic Shadow is me as the sun is going down around 3:45pm at Hunter today.

With Vail and Alterra closing there’s very few mountains open after today.

Unfortunately, it seems to only make sense for all east coast mountains to close for the foreseeable future. first and foremost for safety concerns, especially mountains with 4-6 person chairlifts with groups mixing together, gondolas and trams. But with the horrible “winter” we’ve had, even for mountains far up north, I can only assume a lot of the smaller mountains were operating at breakeven or close to a loss the last few weeks with the unseasonably warm weather. Oh well... maybe I can try and get a little cash back from Alterra for my ikon pass this year?
Out West they are closing with 400+ inches at some mountains. Jackson Hole is closed on a 23" powder day today. Glad I was there two weeks ago.

Insane! Fucking awesome!
Is it too early to dream about next season at Plattekill?

Thank you for sharing this. I love the small mountain feel in the absence of a pandemic, but would hope that only smaller-scale operating mountains being opened wouldn't destroy that small mountain feel. Regardless, I'll be living in NH by the time next winter rolls around, so a backcountry setup will help with getting turns in with an absence of open ski mountains.
I'm trying to get a Van set up for this exact reason
Windham was added to the Ikon pass for next season so Plattekill should be even less crowded if that's possible.

Do they have a cam on it? I wonder what it's looking like at this point......
edit....
I saw some recent photos it got poached big time with the last round of snow they had on Monday. Also have a friend up at Stowe that has been riding almost daily in the Notch.

People are always going to poach. The access road to Killington is blocked off. But we all know their are other ways. I have a place up there. Will be going soon. Not been up since the day they shut Killington down.
At least I can go mountain biking at my local trails there. As long as I stay within the 10 mile rule they have in place. That puts me in the Green Mountain Trails and Sherburne trails/ Killington Mountain Bike Club Trails ?♂️ ?♂️ ?♂️ ?♂️
