Top 3 Best Lifts in NYS?

[Harvey]

Brownski I assumed you were talking about the terrain served, vs the lift itself?

Terrain serviced it would be summit.. Wilmington... Little whiteface. The terrain is unmatched... Conditions now that's another story.

 

[Harvey]

Ok well you know what I mean... the skiing delivered vs the lift itself.

Yes, absolutely- but I’m not a stickler.The lifts that you would most like to ski off of

I assume Hickory’s no longer qualifies

I’m not a stickler.

OK if you aren't a stickler this could work.

I can't be limited to three. It's in my contract, I get 10.

And I have some places to visit yet so I am leaving some of my spots blank.

Plattekill Double
Burnt Ridge Quad
McCauley Hall
Snow Pocket Tbar at Snow Ridge
Poma 2 HSC
LWF

I'm reserving the rest for Central and Western NY, places I've yet to discover.

I think my third pick is Chair 2 at Greek. Those trees under that lift are tons of fun. Of course I’ve never skied McCauley or Snow Ridge so I guess that could change.

That’s awesome. If Mount Greylock ski club were in NYS I’d include the rope tow for sure. Surface lifts rock.

Dude, it’s totally up to you but why do you need 4 TBDs? Can’t we just leave It at 6? What if it Turns into a top 12 once you ski Bristol and HV? You’ll run out of TBDs. You can leave it at six and add on later

Let's assume the conditions are excellent for my choices -
1. Whiteface Summit Quad - even strong green skiers can enjoy it.
2. Gore's AE2 - arguably serves some of the best blue skiing in the East
3. Belleayre's new Lightening Quad serving the best green pod in the East

Honorable mention:
Hunter West's Zephyr Express - 3743' length/1295'vertical/avg grade 37%/4 minute ride
Plattekill Double
In the bummer category
Bobcat t-bar
Hickory Poma
