since when did albany become a town? it sounds so white trashish, but then again, at nisky, we have a max of like 10 black kids while albany and schenectady have like 10 white kids, i'll just shutup now.

Mad people throw down at greek peak. There are like three good crews and ski off and on, the Ithaca Crew AKA 607 AKA Wonderbunch, then the Vestal Crew, and then the GP Royals, which are the best of the best at greek peak who ski together, and they absolutely kill. Theres other various crews that are good that chill at greek as well.

haha alright proves my point even more. you're way closer to pa then cny. if you work at greek you should know erik vaningen, matt mcginnis or the park manager there. why not try to find someone to ride with there.

maybe you should TAKE a joke. GP Royals? If there is any AKAs you know it has to be some sarcasm.

jiminy is in massachusetts. Central new york would be the CENTER of the state- i.e. points east to west between utica and rochester, and north to south between oswego and binghamton. Jiminy peak is east of eastern new york

when you're in ny, anything north of the city for some reason is considered upstate ny. When i moved from the bronx to sullivan county, about an hour away, my friends back in the city would say hows the country, or how is it upstate? When in reality you could still go like 7 hours more north
