    Favorite ski area this year?

    Blandford Gotta go with an unusual one. BLANDFORD!!! With all the snow we got this year they were 100 % open plus. Lots of woods and glades and great coverage on steeper trails and the snow was in awesome shape. Closed a little early but with the recent rain around here what are you gonna do.

    Why would you not move out West?

    Ugly Places I agree with many of the statements above specifically the ocean and lack of water bodies in general. In many cases their is a greater divercity of ski areas closer by in New england.
