Horrable, terrable, so many bare spots and so much ice. I dont know what the people below are talking about, maybe they work for the resort or know someone who does. But I can tell you, it's all hype. Drive an hour further north for real skiing, any place but here. Condistion are not ever reported as they are. Hate to break the news to the cat but "ice" is not packed powder. Ship this place and save your money, a headache and a big dissapointment. I had a season pass this year, my first time, skied once cause of thier conditions mis rep'd all the time. What a waste of money.

i live close to catamount and have been to mts. across the hudson like bel aire and hunter and i done some other stuff in New england an i prefer catamount. i hate ppl that say catamount is s***. i love to ride catamount, i did the whole pres week. was a little crowded on the mass side but the quad lift to ridge run to walters way to the half pipe rocked. must have done that 20 times. the park wasnt lookin to bad. unfortunately i missed the pipe jam on sunday. the food wasnt bad but why doesthat matter you go to ride not to eat. i f***in love to ride catamount!!!!!!!!

Been skiing catamount all season and they seem to do great with whatever conditions mother nature throws at them.

I just skied Catamount this saturday and ive gotta say that even with the notorious january thaw the conditions were pretty good for new york. the coverage was great considering they had a week of 50 degree weather, barely any bare spots on open trail, just some hay on trafficked areas. they had a well maintained learning area and a couple of cruisers with a 2ft+ base. Once you got off those it was thinner though. they had a pretty sick park set up too, spent most of the day on that and had a blast couldve used some harder features though. warm temps = soft landings. ive been too mountains like stratton and okemo and ive gotta say catamount was the most fun ive had on a board. theyve got friendly employees and a fun little mountain to spend the day (or night) at. cafeteria was expensive food wasnt great but who goes skiing for the food? some of the little kids are annoying but what can u do? overall a pretty fun place.

I have read the other reviews and was very dissapointed by what people wrote. I have skied CA,CO,MT,MI,MA,NH,NY,OH,PA,VT,UT,WV and Canada. No this is not the best place on earth it does not claim to be. It is great for what it is, close to the tri-state area, not crowded, not expensive, good varied terain. Yes the conditions can be iffy, the conditions have been iffy in New England for as long as I have been skiing(25 yrs.+). Don't forget mother nature is envolved and things change hour by hour and skier by skier. Perfection is out west, if you get enough days in close to home you will find some near perfect days. In contrast to what others wrote, people in general are friendly at Catamount, if you don't believe me go spend a couple days at Hunter over a weekend. Bottom line this place is great for what it is!
