Rochester Gelande

(In Japanese, a ski slope is called a "gerende", apparently from German "gelande". The German word has an umlaut over the 'a' it seems.)

One of these days I'll have to check out Welch Village's ski slopes. I figured it was just a dinky little hill, but it's got 1000-some feet of height to it, which is good enough. There's also the Elm Creek Park Reserve, which has a Burton-affiliated snowboard education program. Perhaps if I have time to hit the slopes often, I'll have to buy my own board....
