What is your most positive memory of skiing in NY?

My return-to-ski time at GP, about 15 years ago. I went with my son, in the drizzle at night. It had been probably 20 years since I skied. I started on the sub-bunny slope learning areas, and progressed to some of the greens. I still remember the huge grin I had on my face as we skied in the mist down towards the lift. The next year, I bought skis and a season pass.

My other favorite memory is one of the closing days at GP. It was in the 20s overnight, and a bluebird day. I got 5 really nice runs down Iliad, staying in the shade, and then went home, put on shorts and hung up my hammock for the season.
