Epic Journey to Buffalo, NY...

So I got out of my last class at 3 oclock yesterday afternoon, stop by my buddies room. He tells me that Buffalo has gotten 2 feet of snow and starts trying to convince me that we need to go and ski. I was just like, dude, you're crazy, it's over 5 hours away. So 15 minutes later we were in my car leaving Potsdam, NY on the way to Buffalo. 5 hours later we got our first glimpse of snow and the mission of the trip was completed, seeing snow in October. We ended up setting up a couple not so successful rails and drops around UB, but let me tell you, it was good to see snow again. We left Buffalo around 2 a.m. and headed back to the north country. After watching a tranformer on a telephone pole blow up for a while (which was fucking awesome), we got gas just off the thruway and a crazy guy almost blew up the whole place with his cigarette. It was wild. All in all, it was a hell of a trip. Here's to spontaneous journey's across NY state!

spontaneous trips are the best for sure, but they can go horribly horribly wrong

Are there any good places to ski by Potsdam? I'm going to school there and I don't know of any ski hills by it. I'll prolly be going to Whiteface and VT.
All times are Eastern (-4)
