This is one of our favorite ski/snowboard spots. It’s a little far but reasonably priced and has a large skiable area. Parking is also close to the slopes which is a big advantage over Mountain Creek.

Hiking
Buttermilk Falls is a favorite of ours. There’s a short, steep scramble up the hill side next to the waterfall with a nice viewing platform at the top. The pathway mostly consists of steps so it’s not challenging as long as you can handle the vertical climb. The ambitious can keep climbing and reach the Adirondack Trail.

Sightseeing
I believe you need to plan ahead to get tickets. The couple running this have an interesting story to tell and it's great to be able to experience these wonderful animals in large enclosures.
