    Oktoberfest is a real treat. designa Be prepared to spend some cash, and designate a driver! Prices were decent, and if the weather is nice you will have a great time.

    FUN mountain to ski at. But super crowded on the weekends all season long. The lift lines go quickly but prepare to ski on some ice and dodge beginner skiers/snowboarders the whole way down.

    The old Action Park. Loved Traction Park back in the days. Great memories & in winter Vernon Valley Great Gorge; skiing & all those winter sports. Awesome times, definitely have to see how it is now.

    Great local mountain close to many NJ residents that live close to NYC. It's always well maintained. Weekdays are much less crowded. The weekends get packed.

    Avoid bunny slopes even if you’re a beginner. It’s so crowded that it’s actually more dangerous b/c there are more obstacles to avoid. You get more practicetime & room as a beginner on the blue slopes

    Even if you think you're not a terrain park person, going to south mountain is totally worth it for shorter lines. The trails are covered better too. Also getting a park pass is super easy.

    Went skiing, took almost two hours to get tickets and rentals, place was packed, and snow machines needed to run more often (east coast skiing is icy, but there was barely any snow on the surface)

    This small ski resort turns into a fantabulous water park during the Summer. Although crowded, it is sprawling, and the rides are built into the side of a mountain, interspersed with great shady fore

    Crowded on wkends. Indian pass is fine but watch out for folks who always stop in middle of the lane. 2 areas in great northern is flat so don't stop (boarders) bcuz u need the momentum.

    Pretty icy most of the time. Only one main chair lift open today which sucks... but I got a free hot chocolate? Does that work out? Also: Heinz makes ketchup, BBQ and honey mustard sauce... awesome!

    Get here early! If u don't own equipment, rent before u get here, they ran out of boards/boots - prob an exception due to holiday w'end, but you'll save $ regardless. Guest services was very helpful.

    One of the most disgusting places I have ever been in my life. Do not go here. Bathrooms are disgusting. My wife is still traumatized. No toilet paper, overflow. The locks don't work.

    Watch out for the ketchup, it might be bbq sauce that some clown put in Heinz bottles. And the staff knew about it.
