I have SUV to plow through snow, I will be trying to make it out this year more often!
NEPOC'ers hit the slopes?

Ahh Luke, the wife is no problem. She wants to get out skiing more this year.
Where are we talking about going skiing?
There isn't a mountain I really dislike. Even if snow conditions aren't the best. The bigger mountains tend to spread the crowds out thats the only thing I've really noticed.
I haven't frequented the mountains like I used to mostly $$$$ is the deterrent. But every year I want to get out there. It really gives you something to look forward to and helps the winter pass!!!

haha...tiny...when i first went there, the slopes only went half way...there was no chair t bars and rope tows!!
I grew up on Ski Sundown (REDD probably knows it well) and it was great for a few hours after school or on the weekend nights and great to ride the park (back when I bounced right up after a fall). But two years ago I drove in a driving snow storm to Nashoba valley. Ton of snow. Finally on the lift with my roommate we see what appears to be the top of the mtn.
Me- is this the top?
roommate - no ... no way this is the top the lift has to keep going.
me- no dude this really looks like the top.
roommate- NO WAY this can't be the top it'd be a huge rip off!
crazy laughter between the two of us ....
me- wtf it is the top quick raise the bar!
THAT MOUNTAIN IS SMALL!
Never skied Killington or Pico. Use to ski Jay Peak all the time
Jay Peak northern VT right? If its the one I'm thinking of they get dumped on I think a lot of lake effect snow. I've been dying to go there. Long drive.
Just picked up a helmet at the ski show at the expo center this weekend. $40 off the listed price!
I've skied all over the place. For the big mountains, Mt. Snow always has the best conditions for intermediate trails but their expert stuff (north face) can be very icy. Sunday River has lots of terrain but I always find myself searching for a good trail at that mountain...and half the day you spend traversing to other lifts. Killington is great for long top-to-bottom runs off their gondolas.
For medium sized mountains, I have always liked Wildcat, great expert trails. Bretton Woods is nice for cruising but it is filled with yuppie families that spend more time in the lodge than on the slopes.

could not have said it better! I did mount snow late winter last year it was awesome two days of skiing I was really pleased.
I've also done a lot of riding at bear peak and attitash too!
I've skied Attitash on good days and bad days. That mountain get skied off at about 12:00-1:00 no matter what the conditions are. They've got some great trails but I tend to tire of the mountain after one day.
I usually stay in the Glen/NorthConway area between Christmas and New Years with my family ever year. We hit up each of the mountains for one day to keep things interesting.
