Extended Hours in the Spring

snoloco
Every year (except last year) Hunter stays open till 5 every Saturday from the first Saturday on DST to the end of the season and 4:30 on at least one earlier weekend in March.  They are the only mountain in NY that I know of that does this on a regular basis.  However, I do remember one time, many years ago, that Windham kept the quad running until 4:30 but, I haven't seen them do this since.  Does anyone else know of any other ski area that does something similar?
I've lived in New York my entire life.

Plattekill does this although I'm not sure they publicize it.

If you want to ski late at Plattekill in spring, look for Laszlo late in the day.  Rip it with him, and make sure to tell him Plattekill has the best terrain in the Cats. He'll skis until the sun goes behind the mountain and will keep the lift running until then.

Whiteface has done it before but people didnt take advantage of it.  people still show up early and want to ski early and quit early.  cant just extend the day due to overtime costs.

In the spring I prefer to end when the snow gets heavier and hit the deck for some adult beverages

I noticed that MRG was closing at 4:30 last weekend and Sugarbush is 10-5 weekdays, 9-5 weekends now.
