My current active list for NY ski areas is at 50: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1G2-l2DVg7-QwroOi7EqRDrJYJ4ICYLcJbLx-nARJdrA/edit?gid=562559213#gid=562559213 Of those: - 16 run only surface lifts - 5 are completely private, meaning there is some sort of membership or lodging...

For those of you who have hiked the trails, do you think they're kid-friendly? Wondering if my 5-year-old could handle it (without snow). He did fine on some uphill hikes this summer.

When I was interviewing the owner of Shawnee PA yesterday for the podcast, he mentioned that he used to work at Dutchess Ski Area in New York. I'd never heard of it, so I looked it up, and it looks like it was a substantial operation - 1,000 feet of vert with three lifts, rising over the town of...

I agree. Seems like everyone's having trouble with staffing right now.

Here's my thoughts based on the info I currently have: https://www.stormskiing.com/p/is-the-executioner-coming-for-yet

Do you have a source I can talk to? Trying to do a write-up. Thanks.

Hunter just called it for today. Will be their last day.

Whiteface just called it for Saturday too.

Just got Gore's email confirming.

Oh sorry, West also confirmed they are closing after today.

Here's what I have as of 4/4: Last day of the season for Windham, Bristol, Shawnee (Maine), Wachusett, Attitash, Gunstock, Ragged, Bolton Valley, Burke, Okemo, and Pico. After today, here's what we'll be left with: NY: Gore, Greek Peak (aiming for May 1!), Hunter, Whiteface, Belleayre...

Platty skiing great on its last day of the season. Nice soft snow all the way down. Cons up top. Only the triple is spinning but plenty of people are hiking over.

Berkshire East is now done too. Wachusett and 7 Springs are all that's left across PA and Mass. Plenty still open in NY, VT, NH, and ME. NJ, CT, RI fully closed now.

Well they just called it. Mohawk and Camelback too. That final rainstorm was just a bit too much I guess.

I’ve been tracking closed areas across the Northeast here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/0/d/1RBYwWW8Ldmk9HiWOcoWqAIgwOAypy5S91RxP81rmKFQ/htmlview The main purpose of that doc is to track season passes, but there’s also a column where I track who’s closed. Daily operators left in NY...

I was there today. Frankly I can’t believe they’re still open. Props to them for letting skiers figure it out, but each run was like a jigsaw puzzle, and there were a few sections where you had to take your skis off.

Yup, I got this one wrong. Apologies for being fake news. Updated post here: https://skiing.substack.com/p/freedom-pass-returns-with-10-partner
