I soon ended up in a strange bright place unlike the previous hour long journey down valley.

Just a friendly reminder that the world’s most ski focused rock band is from the upstate. I believe two of them are actually trollers.

Man, it breaks my heart when this thread drops to the second page so here’s a pic from an area that may or may not be in the disputed zone. Who can ID it?

Is that part of the canal in the lower right or just a snowmaking pond?
Snowmaking pond. Anything near the canal would be indisputably upstate in my opinion. It’s Thunder Ridge. It’s a tiny hill in Putnam County- almost in Westchester really. Not much to it by my kid enjoyed it.Quote:

Man I love the charm a small ski hill brings.
Canal stop or not.
Dude. You're making the rounds. Love it.
Right? Hit all 53(?) and I think you get a free bowl of soup.
And named Chief Cartographer of this thread.
Yeah, I don’t know where to go next. I guess we’ll get a night in at Mount Peter this week but after that I don’t know. Back to Catamount or Greek maybe?

Good idea. I went and checked out Mount Greylock Ski club once. It was pretty coolQuote:

You know all of these urban exiles who moved away during Covid to some place they never even visited before? This could be a universal thought:Quote:

The majority of people are white trash. The "Locals" as I call them look like they crawled out of a trailer park on their hands and knees( and that is only for the beer). It seems that hygeine is not something that is taught around these parts. My children have had comments made to them about having new clothes that are in good repair. The school is mediocre, they don't teach a language to the kids, there isn't a Pre-K (you either have to be a welfare recipient or pay a horrible amount) If your are a woman that likes jewelry, designer bags, hairstyles and shoes that are not very functional, this is not the place for you. I am not kidding when I tell you I had a person in Grand union tell me that my Puma sneakers were not very functional. This place is truly Hell on Earth. I could go on forever about this Septic wasteland. Needless to say, we will be selling this house and moving back to civilization."
Although hell on Earth is inner Camden, so, they have no clue. Yet.
Swain? We have yet to see a TR from there.Quote:

grand union done gone bust a few years back....
Well that settles it then.
Vibes to the citizens of Stamford. I hope you get a Seneca Casino annex soon to ease your woes.
