i wouldnt recommend trusting mapquest. it will send you miles out of your way. ive used it a few times and everytime ended up going my own way that was a lot faster.

I trust the 78 miles. And I know more than half of it is not on the interstate. Usually takes me 30 mins to get to 87 from North River.

Whiteface is 1 hour and 25 min drive from Gore. Take Northway (Chestertown entrance) to Keene/Lake Placid exit and follow signs for Whiteface mountain.

How far from Ruby Mountainview Road, North River area, to the Gore parking lot? 10-15 minutes?

P.S. SNOW! Very Happy 4-8 inches above 1500!
