I did a drive by last night, lights were on but no snowmaking . Expand I intended to but just couldn't find it. I saw a puff of smoke and flew towards it, but it wasn't Bear Creek. I assumed they have been making snow and that it would be super easy to spot, as I used to see it all the time when practicing around the Kutztown area. So I guess they aren't making any snow. 1 Quote

But there are some great places for a later lunch in the catskills, so we'll probably do that.... 1 Quote
Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted November 20, 2022 Report Posted November 20, 2022 I would figure drive to Catskills probably costs an extra $40 in gas/tolls in addition to taking an extra 2 hrs and putting more miles on car. if I was going solo it would only be worth it if I felt it would be a better ski experience. Would feel otherwise if bringing kids. 1 Quote
