We’re thrilled to welcome you to a private day at Plattekill Mountain (NY) — our own slice of the Catskills for the day.
Conditions are in great shape, the mountain is fully open, and we’ve curated an easy, one‑day escape from NYC: leave early in the morning, ski and celebrate together all day, and be back in Manhattan the same evening.
This is more than just a ski trip — it’s a rare chance to have a mountain where everyone you meet in the lift lines, on the slopes, and in the lodge is part of our community. It’s a low‑friction way to meet other founders, swap stories, make new friends, and build real relationships in a relaxed, fun setting. (And yes — many people put this on their company cards 😉)
You can learn more about the mountain here: https://plattekill.com/
Below is everything you need to know for a smooth, fun, and seamless day on the mountain.
Pick‑up location: Cafe Grumpy 200 W 39th St., NYC
Check-in, then board!
Look for an NYCFC team member (bright orange hats + NYCFC jackets) to check in and get directed to your bus.
💡 Bus etiquette: Keep voices low so people can rest. When you arrive, make sure to bring everything with you into the lodge as you may be on a different bus on the way home.
