Tuxedo Ridge Ski Center
Template:Tuxedo ridge is no longer open as of September 2015 area
Tuxedo Ridge Ski Center is a ski area located in Tuxedo, New York which offers lift serviced skiing and riding on 7 trails. The center originally opened in 1962 as Sterling Forest Ski area. It operated under this name for several decades and gained popularity due to its proximity to New York City. After not opening for several seasons due to low snowfall and declining visits, the mountain reopened under new management in January 2007 after being purchased by Novenogan Development who changed the name to Tuxedo Ridge. Currently, Novenogan Development is no longer the owner and the ski center is named Tuxedo Ridge LLC.
The mountain
Tuxedo ridge features 100 skiable acres on 7 trails located on a mountain known locally as Tiger mountain. The mountain is a part of the Sterling Forest State Park. The trails include a "bunny slope" with teaching area, numerous intermediate runs, a NASTAR racing course and a terrain park. The mountain also has a lift serviced tubing center and is lighted for night skiing.
While the skiing, snowboarding and tubing are offered in the winter, Tuxedo Ridge LLC also offer paintball, concerts,and event space during the off-season. The mountain is also the site of the New York Renaissance Faire, which occurs on weekends during August and September. In June the mountain hosts the New York Spartan Sprint, a component event of the Reebok Spartan Race.[1]
