[quote="Denison"]Greg,
you may concider weekend trip to both Gore/Whiteface instead of day trip to Gore only. I beleive It's an hour drive and multiday ticket is valid on both. Get a feel of skiing in Adirondacks. Also consider March Snowboard Cup weekend.
Denison/ the black eyed baby with the head wrap and gotee has a great idea,go for it ,do them both

Hunter over Gore? ouch. Rumor and Lies are worth the drive. |
Yeah yeah yeah. People just love to rag on Hunter. The place has legit black diamond terrain. Anyone is kidding themselves if they think otherwise. |
46er is right. Hunter has black diamond terrain ("legit" black diamond terrain is an iffy statement . . . I've skied the mountain at its toughest and it can't hold a candle to Gore, Whiteface, Stowe, Sugarbush, Sugarloaf, Jay, MRG, etc.).
It's no Gore.
Come up here and sample the wares . . . then talk to us about expert terrain . . .
