Ski - or slide - into winter fun!

Whether you prefer to ski or go tubing, Western New York offers both in its Colden Snowbelt—only a short drive from Buffalo

December 19, 2007 - Take advantage of the snow and have some winter fun at Western New York’s premiere skiing destination — Kissing Bridge! With 36 snow-covered slopes, 700 acres of terrain, nine lifts, two base lodges, ski and snowboard shop and two full rental facilities, Kissing Bridge is the answer to all your skiing needs.

Located in Western New York’s legendary Colden Snowbelt, Kissing Bridge averages an annual snowfall of 180 inches. Daily lift tickets are available for four and eight-hour periods, along with the “Unlimited” ticket, good from the time purchased until close of that night. In addition, 75 percent of the slopes are lit at night! For more information, visit www.kbski.com or call 716-592-4963.

Adjacent to Kissing Bridge is Colden Tubing Company - Western New York’s largest downhill tubing park. Tubers can slide 10 stories down! While tubing is for those at least seven years old and 42” tall, conditions permitting, a free bunny slope will be available for smaller children.

Back again for the second year in a row, “All Night Tubing” will feature unlimited night tubing on Fridays, Saturdays and Holidays from 5-9 p.m. The Colden Tubing Company will open for the season on December 26th. For more information and to check operating hours and weather conditions, please call 716-592-4961.
