Platty is by far best day trip from metro area by far! Continuous steeps, and the woods. Great skiers vibe. They could handle double the people with no impact on lines. I kinda forgot about platty for a couple of years going further north ,but I fell back in love and visited I think 6 times this season. I'am even thinking of building a cabin near by. Can't wait till next season,guess ill go back to surf kayaking and biking.
