The pizza here is probably the best in our area. It’s about a half hour from our house. Call to make sure of their closing time. We’ve cut it close a time or two by getting there close to 8pm.

Magnificent falls. Taller than Niagara. It's better after a rain, but the newly expanded trail next to the falls is always a pleasure to walk and see. If you want to avoid the crowds, go during the week. Be careful to only parking in legal parking spots. The town of Hunter gets a fair amount of their budget by giving out parking tickets to tourists for parking illegally.

It used to be our favorite ski resort in this area because it has challenging trails and a good choice for all other levels. It feels the least crowded in comparison to the others. BUT it is also the most expensive, and the snow making has been problematic the last few years.

This place is the worst! Avoid it like the plague, unless you need to buy a lottery ticket, which is their major source of revenue. Even the dirtiest bodega in the Bronx is cleaner than this place.
