Rochester or Bust - Rolling Up My Sleeves, Making a Move...

[Photo Engineer]

There are 3 or 4 great skiing resorts within about 30 miles of Rochester. In the winter, they show skiing condition updates live on the news.

Yes Holmburgers,
I wish you the very best in upstate N.Y. I was born and raised in N.Y.C. and places "upstate" were as foreign to me as Nepal. Sudying under Ron sounds exciting (I mean intelectualy, not sexualy). Chemical photography will see a rebirth, after all circuitry on Earth is wiped out via sunspots, or Atomic detination in the atmosphere. It can happen!

How's the skiing in the east? Where's closest/best place from Rochester? I've gotten pretty used to an annual ski trip to the Rockies, but I think this year it's gonna be in the Appalachians!

Been there and done that. Vertical rise of around 1,000 feet. Just plan to keep skiing in the Rockies or you will be disappointed. For deep powder consider Fernie in southeastern British Columbia.

Not alot of skiing in Central Park.

Whiteface!! Largest vertical in the East. Only a few hours drive from Rochester to Lake Placid, NY - home of the Miracle on Ice

That had to be clarified?


Sounds like the long stretch around here of hot, humid days over 100 degrees finally got to ya, Bill.

Fantastic -- the bravery to pick up and physically move towards your dreams will echo through every part of your life. Best of luck, and enjoy the time with your mentors!

I visited Rochester about a month ago. I have a cousin that lives there with her husband. Great place, awesome diners for breakfast. We also went to the grape festival, there was wine tastings and tons of food like BBQ and such. I also had a chance to visit the Eastman house. I really enjoyed it and got to go on the indoor tour. It was raining so the outside grounds tour wasn't available. Also there was a wedding held there, which kinda blocked off certain areas. It's a fairly new thing my cousin in law said. I would visit again!
