Come to the "real" summit of Hunter mountain (not what the ski lodge personnel thinks is the summit!). On the summit you'll find a 60 foot tall fire tower with a killer 360 degree view of the Catskills and for miles beyond. Hike up one of the 6 trail routes to the summit or ride the chair lift when it's open in the spring/summer/fall. From the lift its a moderate (2 mile, +800 foot climb) to the fire tower. The chair lift itself provides a great view of the surrounding scenery to the north, west, and east of the village of Hunter. On weekends between Memorial Day and Columbus Day weekends there will be a volunteer on the subject who has opened the fire tower cab, will answer questions, and let you go into the observers cabin to look around. the trails are well marked and easy to follow. For more information just Google Hunter Mountain hiking or some other appropriate subject.

We had a great winter getaway over February break! I had a great first lesson - never skied a day before in my life. Cafeteria lunch was adequate. Runs were good, given winter conditions on the East coast. The Adventure Park did not have ice skating open and the tubing was geared more for kids. Could be better if one or two lanes were more adult with bumps or something.

We were very lucky to get tickets during Presidents week - Windham was very busy but we had the grandkids and really needed an activity we could all enjoy. This was great, outdoors of course, people were pretty respectful and keeping their distance in line. My compliments especially to Leah in the ticket office. She was very patient with each and every customer, and explained as best she could since restrictions were in place as to how many tickets could be sold for each time slot. Leah did a great job! I know a lot of people were disappointed as the sessions sold out, and we felt very fortunate to have gotten our tickets. Looking forward to returning next year!
