    1.雪质:不知道顶门(9点)什么样 12点上去感觉相比国内整体偏软 下午三四点开始非常喧 不分日夜场我说咋没刻滑佬呢 原来是雪质的事…read more 2.Rental:不分单双板所以排队人很多 鞋和板子分开租 排完鞋子排板 所以最好在外面租 不过雪场头盔比外面干净 但是好像不能单独租 3.缆车:从大厅出来了只有cabriolet一个相对高速的站着的缆车 工作日排队不慢 不过右边这些缆车几乎不排队 能自己滑的直接去右边滑就好了

    I've heard about Mountain Creek for decades and finally tried it this season. Will not be going…read moreback! Check out Plattekill, Belleayre, Jiminy Peak, Butternut, Thunder Ridge in the area instead for more family friendly fun easy going experience. I've never been to a ski place with so many slopes filled with people stopped in place or falling all around! There seemed to be so many people skiing there who never had lessons but are still on the blue slopes. The left side of the mountain is filled with snowboarders. I was in super busy lift line with probably 95% snowboarders - mostly young young guys. First time I went there I ended up in a terrain park that had not much space on either side of the jumps. I was terrified one of the teenagers or 20 some things would go way too fast and jump on me or my kids! So many snowboarders on the mountain also means a lot of snow being pushed around the slopes so more mogul type on every slope lol. I find it a very scary crowded place for families esp with small children learning. The main lodge is far too crowded on the weekend. Think Rockefeller Plaza during the holidays. There's another lodge where you can eat also, it's at the bottom of the left side of the mountain where the terrain parks are. The one star is for the sauerkraut hotdog which was pretty good. Make sure to book the $20 parking at the front online - it's worth it! We never did it, fully booked so ended up walking crazy far with our ski gear ski boots on. We don't mind walking like that normally at most resorts, but this one is a big no. I felt done before starting skiing. For absolute beginner lessons, smallest children, this place might be OK. And there's a place to sit outside if it's not too cold out that overlooks the learning area where you can get drinks and sometimes there's a DJ. The staff at the lift chairs were excellent though. They seemed to be watching carefully and helping more than other area resorts!

    A nice area for hiking with castle ruins and a lake and changing elevations. There are some paved…read moreroads but also trails off that path. You can hear the sound of cars on the highway both at the end and beginning of the hikes. Lots of dogs off leash even though there are signs that say to leash all dogs. The parking lot can get crowded later in the afternoon especially in the spring and summer, but there were plenty of spots on a Sunday morning at 9:30.

    My 350th Yelp review is a banger…read more I try to stop by Ramapo at least once a year, usually at the beginning of hiking season; there's a nice 5- or 6-mile route I do in there that helps me build up for the more hardcore hikes later in the year, and it's unusual for me to do this one so late into the actual summer. Boy, is this a different hike in June. Ask the gazillion bears I saw. Yesterday I did about 6 miles, starting at the Ramapo Lake Trailhead parking lot, going on the blue trail to the aforementioned lake and then turning left onto N Shore Drive. I then veered off toward the castle ruins but made a pretty quick right before the path up to said ruins onto Cannonball to Skyline Drive, joining up with the Castle Point Trail back to and through the castle ruins, before heading down back to the lakefront and continuing all the way around the lake until getting back to the blue trail and the parking lot. The official hike in my book says it's 6.6 miles when you include an additional loop to the south of the lake that gets you very close to 287, but i bypassed that today. One of the big issues with this section of Ramapo is the parking situation. I can't tell you how many times I've had to pivot and do a different hike because this Ramapo Lake parking lot was completely full by mid-morning, and the powers that be insist on plastering no parking signs in every other conceivable area going literally miles down Skyline Drive. I get that Skyline is a busy road but there ARE sections where you can theoretically park safely on the shoulder without bothering anyone else - I think there's a compromise here somewhere, but because they don't have one, this lot is usually full by 8:30am on a nice day, and then you have vulture cars just lurking in the middle of the lot for ages waiting for hikers to come back so they can immediately grab the new spot. You can't tell me that's much safer than the alternative. Anyway. The other mild annoyance for me is that you can often hear car traffic, especially in the southern section by 287, but it is what it is. The lake and the castle are the real selling points here, especially the castle. Ruins are one of my all-time favorite hiking kinks, and this adventure has them in droves. The one drawback (again, because of the time of year) is that it gets overgrown with foliage very quickly, so this is a rare instance where I would recommend exploring it in the early spring before you're bushwhacking to get through. Very cool optics though, and a definite must at some point if you're in the area. The wildlife situation? Man. This was one for the books. I usually see one or two bears a year, but I saw that many today, and numerous hikers told me they'd encountered others as well. It was insane and I've never seen anything like it. I got a picture of the biggest one I saw (attached) as I was slowly backing away, and I'd guess this was a 700 pounder? Big boy, and wasn't particularly fazed by my bear horn (though he did ultimately wander off after a few toots on it). Absolutely would not do this hike without a bear horn. I don't even want to ponder what would have happened otherwise. Neither of the bears seemed aggressive but you just never know, and if cubs had been around? Ugh. I encountered a park ranger toward the end of the hike who said it had been insane bear-wise the entire summer and they're just getting more comfortable with humans so again, be careful, use common sense, etc. The trail conditions were pretty decent. Some of the blazes/markers were not the best, and a few sections of Cannonball were one way (meaning you had to keep turning around to confirm the markers because they were only on one side of the trees/poles). As mentioned, the trail section by the castle is overgrown right now but I'm not crazy about advocating for maintenance in an area that by definition should probably be preserved and as authentic as possible. To me there aren't too many significant inclines on the trail (there's one small section very close to the parking lot where you have to take a minute for footing on the rocks, as well as the climb up to the castle if you're going on that trail) but it's definitely rocky and not particularly flat except by the lake. This is one of the better hikes in the area but it's not my absolute favorite - it's crowded and a little too close to civilization. But arguably the bears cancel some of that out. Memorable day.

    This review is for the Warbasse Junction- Lafayette, NJ section of the Paulinskill Valley Trail…read more The Parking lot has a solar powered bathroom shack and map of the trail. This area is actually part of a loop of trails- the Paulinskill Valley Trail (PVT), the Sussex Branch Trail (SBT) & Former LNE Trail. The Sussex Branch is located across the street but the third trail (LNE) was not to be found. Too bad the trail is not marked better. We tried to do the loop which would have included all 3 trails but we weren't able to find the LNE trail, so we biked back and forth on the Paulinskill Valley Trail. We started on the eastern side and biked west towards Smartswood Station. The Paulinskill Valley Trail extends 27 miles from Knowlton in Warren County (Smartswood Station) eastward through Blairstown, Frelinghuysen, Hardwick, Stillwater, Fredon, Hampton, and Lafayette, to its eastern terminus at Sparta Junction in Sussex County. So there is plenty more to explore. The Paulinskill Valley Trail is a very nice and shady trail and the surface is mostly compact gravel. It was easy to ride on our hybrid bikes but there were a few sections that had water, so it was a little muddy. We saw other biker, hikers, and horseback riders on our ride. We will return either to this or another section soon to continue exploring.

    Three tracks-to-trails efforts converge in this area near Lafayette to form a loop. A fellow hiker…read moreattested to a four mile loop, but the LNE's location is not clear on Google and Manda R. had trouble finding it. We did a shorter out-and-back on the Paulinskill, heading west from Warbasse Junction. The trail was flat and made up of a fine, gravely soil. Since it hasn't accommodated a train since the 1960s, it's pretty well shaded. It cuts through rock formations and local fields. We saw runners, hikers, and horseback riders.
