More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step out of the Rochester terminal into a cool lake-air draft and spot a nameplate: the driver who will take you from the city to the ski town. The first miles are urban — wide roads, late-model neighborhoods — then the landscape opens to rolling, forested hills that tilt into the Allegheny Plateau. The car hums steadily as towns and roadside diners slip past; higher slopes and the first chairlift towers of Holiday Valley appear like punctuation marks against the sky.
