My favorite hill by far. My aunt has a cabin 20 minutes away from the hill so I hit up this hill as often as possible. I woudn't say the lifts are crappy....ok maybe the red one is kind of old and shaky but that because it's at such a high elevation. But once you get to the top of that lift you really feel like your on top of the world.
And the little old lady who gives you a hug, I forget her name but she is definitely a hilight! I love how Castle is much more of an advanced hill and it keeps the amateurs/newbies away. Definitely NOT the hill you want to go to if you are learning to ski/board.
