Homer, NY has 3 ski hills nearby, without lift lines, plenty of parking, good eats and beverages available.
All within a 20 min. drive with little if any traffic.
Lake effect available when it blows cold too.
Finger lakes are nearby and there’s lots of nice farms, orchards and vineyards.
The fishing and golfing are good too.

Homer, NY

Ski Town USA! (for the record, I dig Homer)

How many people here are old enough to remember the Greek Peak sign while driving on 81 south past the Homer exit? That was 25 years before I started downhill skiing but back then I assumed from the majestic name that it was, like, Whiteface-sized.

When I eventually skied there in the early 00s, I remember looking at it from the base and thinking, "that's it?" Of course, that was before I hit the trees on a knee-deep powder day and loved it.

One of the underrated ski towns is North Creek.
"Despite its excellent skiing opportunities, Gore Mountain is relatively unknown to most skiers."

I wonder why Gore Mountain is relatively unknown to most skiers?
There are only 30 million people who live within 4 hours from Gore.

I admit it. I was trolling.

How many live within 1 or 2 hours and don’t have a nearer place to go?
I like going to Gore. It’s an all day affair.

Actually the editor of UN is a Gore skier. That's probably why NC made it in.

I've had some interaction with him, at times they use our images without permission.

Two things can be true at the same time. I wouldn't be surprised in this case.
