Swain is another resort in the area. My wife enjoyed going there while chaparoning Ski Club.
I've heard good things about Holiday Valley, but I haven't been yet.

I could be wrong but I don't think his route from DC to Buffalo would bring him anywhere close to CO resorts, therefore he will have to deal with east coast conditions like I'm sure he is used to anyway......

Well, you never know, he could take a huge detour over to CO or up to VT on his way to Buffalo

I found this web site that shows you where all of the NY resorts are located, has reviews, and links to stats.

Also if you got to UB they have a great ski club with weekly bus trips to regional ski resorts as well as a couple of trips each year to Breckinridge, CO and Burlington VT. Check it out here > Schussmeister's Ski and Snowboard Club

Holliday Valley is one of the top ten places in the east to ski and people drive from 4+ hours away to ski there.
