Born, raised, and currently living in Buffalo. We get a solid amount of snow pretty much every year, but we do lack the vertical. Main places to ski are Kissing Bridge and Holiday Valley. Most rad part about skiing out here is dedicated night skiing. Everywhere is open every night of the week until 10pm (1AM at KB on Fridays). Night skiing is super clutch for those of us who work full time. Can't wait until everything opens.

Holiday Valley has set a target opening date for next Friday (11/29), so theres one option.

Kissing Bridge and Holiday valley both have pretty good parks that were completely redone in the past few years. As for places solely for park, we don't have any of that as fa as I know. They should both be opening in the next couple weeks, and passes during early season are generally pretty cheap ($15-$30).

Sorry for the double post but both places usually have a fun early season park if u just want to hike and chill. Holiday Valley will have a larger park though for opening day.
