The view at the top of the mountain is amazing!! I love snowboarding and this is an excellent mountain in comparison to the west coast mountains. Trails are long and wide. One issue is that the 1 day adult is $ 89. That is steep for a lift ticket. Unfortunately, this was the place of the Olympics so I guess you can expect those kind of prices. Another thing they don’t advertise are half day tickets. You have to ask them or get it from Orda store. The pricing is the same at both locations so I highly recommend buying your ticket from Orda because the lines at the mountain are long. This place is skier’s heaven so I think boarders are definitely the minority. Just be careful! In addition to natural snow accumulation, this place also makes manmade snow. The trails were nicely groomed and I personally recommend trying to get as many runs in at the beginning of the day before noon because after that, the snow starts to melt and freeze over. Towards the end of the day, there were many more patches of ice. There are also tons of other things to do in and around Lake Placid. Only issue is they charge quite a bit for those activities(eg bobsled). I will definitely be coming back here again. My next stop will be to try the Vermont mountains to compare.

Drove whiteface highway to top of mountain. After that about a half hour hike to top of rocky mountain top. Awesome views all around if sky is clear like it was this day. Did same hike 2 years ago and couldn’t see a thing due to cloud coverage.
