23 miles apart · New York
Holiday Valley Resort - vs Kissing Bridge
Two Western New York ski areas 23 miles apart, one with a full tubing program and one whose tubing details are hard to find.
Bottom line: Pick Holiday Valley for a documented tubing park with a Li'l Tubers area and lit evenings, and check Kissing Bridge's own site first, since our records hold few details for it.
