So I have already bought a two day ticket for Gore. I saw that I could use my second day at Belleayre, I have never been to Belleayre but I have been to Gore. Looking for opinions on skiing two days at Gore vs skiing one at Gore and one at Belleayre
 
Midweek or on a weekend?

If you want to explore a new mountain, consider checking out Belleayre on Thursday and head to Gore on Friday. I would guess that on Fridays there are more people from NYC/NJ at Belleayre than Gore. Of course, snow conditions and the list of open trails should be a factor to consider.

I liked Belleayre the few days I skied there when I had other reasons to be driving in the northeast during the ski season. It was just before the gondola was installed. Saw a test gondola go overhead during the last time I was there. Never stopped by during mid-season when everything was open.

Because I bought my tickets from Gore I have to ski Gore on the the first day.
 
Sounds like you have the flexibility to make a game time call. What are the dates again?
 
Gore is better. Belle is fine. Not knocking Belle. But, unless the conditions are way better at Belle- like a full on powder day at Belle or a serious thaw/freeze event that just hit the ADKs and not the cats, Gore is the way to go.
