Ski Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 a bigger montage. Ha, bingo. It's state owned, so lift tickets are a little cheaper than neighboring Hunter and Windham, because they are subsidized. Lifts are fixed-grip and pretty slow. The lodge is functional, but very 1950's and small. But it has 1/3 the crowds and very interesting terrain. You park mid-mountain, below the diamonds. The lower mountain is green circles. There are some pretty steep diamonds, some of which don't get much grooming. It skis smaller than other Catskill areas, but there's rarely a liftline. The center slopes are the steepest, while there's a long, winding easy run off to skier's left that is like a stroll through nature. Belleayre has made it a goal to open early and stay open late in the season. They make a lot of snow, then just basically say ski it until too much grass shows. Poke around in this part of the forum. There's been a number of threads about the place. It's one of my favorite places to ski. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
