In case you don't read the USCHO Fan Forum, the new College Hockey Travel Guide is now active:

The entries for Cornell and Clarkson are particularly well-written.  I don't say that for any particular reason, of course.  ;-)

[Al DeFlorio]

But the omission of Purity is a real tsk, tsk...;-)

WTF is with the Moosewood being included while Dunbar's isn't?

[gwm3]

And the picture of Lynah appears to have been taken at some recreational skating session.  What's up with that?

Anyone know who wrote this?  I don't see an author/contributor credit on this page.

[Adam \'01]

I like how several of the how to get tickets sections are like, "Tickets are usually easy to come by, except when Cornell comes to town."

:-)

[Josh '99]

I couldn't find a good external picture of Lynah, so I'm going to take one and submit it; in the meantime, they decided that one was better than nothing.

I would've put Purity in but for space constraints; same for Dunbar's.  Thought a variety of food options would be good to have, especially since the Lynah concessions are...  well, you know.  Besides, do you REALLY want the Clarkson Band showing up at Dunbar's?  I'd rather they annoy the crunchies at Moosewood.  ;-)

[Will]

But wait, you're sending the Clarkson band to Hot Truck!  That can only lead to trouble of the alcohol-induced kind. :-P

Hey Age,

Could you put this up as a link like you did with the Ticket Exchange???
Just a thought. . .;-)

[CowbellGuy]

Oh yeah. hehe :-D

Hey, Josh. Feel free to add a line along the lines of "Find out about more eateries through 14850 Dining" with a link to http://dining.14850.com/

I'd also be happy to have you pull info directly from the 14850 Dining database directly, if you like... and can even deliver it in the CHTG's format.

[Josh '99]

Well, it's not my site, so I can't add info directly.  I'll mention it to the site authors, though.  Don't see why they wouldn't add it.  (Other than the fact that you gave Wendy's a higher rating than some actual restaurants.  :-P )

Definitely agree that Purity should be on the Cornell food list.  The Econolodge is also a good backup hotel.  Not sure if there are limits to how much info you can post.

As far as hotels in the North Country, for years we've been staying at either the Best Western or the Comfort Suites in Canton, where the visiting teams usually stay.  I've only stayed at the Clarkson Inn once, for a playoff I'd rather forget, and IIRC it's a bit pricey.  Also, most of the eateries on the Clarkson list aren't open very late, i.e. you can't get food after the game.  You can eat at the Best Western after the game, but be careful about what you order.  For pre-game food, Maxfield's in Potsdam is also a good choice.  

The Pizza Hut is off limits, of course. ::yark::

[Josh '99]

Canton Pizza Hut comment deleted because it was redundant.

Restaurants I gave in Potsdam are those that were recommended to me by a friend who went to Clarkson.  That was all I had to go on.
