Plattekill, Hunter, Belleayre, Windham 4/19/15

Below are photos of my attempt to skin and ski four Catskill mountain ski areas in one day. Unfortunately my attempt was thwarted by one of the resorts.

Nice!  Great first post.  Windham, ha!  Just one more reason for 'everyone' to hate.

It was a great goal. 3 peaks is still impressive. I also can't get over how fast the snow has melted at Windham, whereas how much it's sticking around at the other 3. I guess they blow "just enough"*, or their exposure is a little worse. They definitely get a little more natural than hunter, but less than platty or belle. There was one storm in the spring that they ended up with a bunch more though. Any other hunter pics?


*granted, their just enough is for the season to be wall-to-wall. not bad.

Great trip report!

This idea is something we discuss with the SANY/Gold Pass guys every year at the NY Press Event. Or a least a lift-served, four-resort approved version. ML has done 2 in day a few times.

Nice effort. Great to meet you and Olive.  She is one sweet doggie.

Good one snoloco, I made some choice sound effects myself upon learning I wasn't able to ski it. I've been skiing the Catskills my whole life and I'm left most unimpressed with Windham Mountain.

Why? Wouldn't you just want to enjoy where you were at instead of riding around in the car

Here's a few more Hunter pics from the 19th.

Well done !!!

Olive Rocks !

Booo Windham !
