McCauley Mountain

McCauley Mountain is a classic, locally based ski resort in Old Forge in the Adirondack Mountains, northern New York. The plant has been in operation since the 1940s and is still family-owned, which is noticeable in both the atmosphere and the focus.

The skiing takes place on a compact but clearly hilly mountain with relatively steep sections in relation to its size. The terrain naturally leans towards more technical piste skiing, and the upper parts of the mountain provide a more continuous fall line than many other smaller ski resorts in the region. Forest skiing occurs to a limited extent, mainly as natural side areas next to the slopes.

McCauley Mountain is especially appreciated by local riders who are looking for consistent slope and efficient skiing without crowds. Night skiing is an important part of the business and reinforces the role of everyday slope for the local area rather than holiday destinations.

This is a ski resort with a clear identity: simple infrastructure, a focus on the skiing itself, and a strong connection to local ski culture in the Adirondacks.
