I received an invite to go skiing with a friend “up north”.  Now, being a Michigander when someone says “up north” I think of……you know of Cadillac, where it is a little hilly, but no mountains.  I soon found out that New York’s “up north” is actually the Adirondack Mountains.  Skiing was awesome, and I rode in my first ever Gondola, which is better that a chair lift, because you don’t have worry about falling on your rear as you get out.  The gondola ride was good 15 minutes to the peak, and skiing down the mountain took a good 20-30 minutes.  That is very different for me, being used to Timber  Ridge where you fly down the hill in like 5 minutes. My muscles were burning by the time I got to the bottom of the mountain.   Here are a couple pictures of the mountain, mind you it was with  my cell phone and not very good quality, but it still shows the beauty.  I did not know New York could look like that, and it was very relaxing being in those surroundings.

If anyone has interest in visiting this area, I strongly recommend it.  It is in the Adirondack Mountains, and called Gore Mountain.
