It takes me the same time to get to the places up north in NH as it does to Sundown. When I go to NH or VT, I either spend time in the glades or in the bumps. I don't bother posting any of my trip reports b/c it would just be lapping that type of terrain. If you where to ask me about the other trails, I would have no clue. MRG is the only place where I did not spend the time lapping one trail, but that's long haul from where I am.

It dawn on me many seasons ago that I'm not going to these places for the vertical nor the for number of trails, I go because it has terrain I liked. So, I go to Sundown b/c they stepped up to seed a bump run near the start to middle part of the season.

How is this place on weekends? I can only get a day trip this weekend, have a voucher, might see a few inches Saturday and overnight.... Sunday might be a good bet.

depends on weather. If its too cold people stay home. Believe it or not if it snows people will stay home. But in general a Saturday is busier than a Sunday.

It's gonna be warm and soupy - perfect mogul weather.

I figure with an opening at 8, it's got to be ski on early, yeah? As long as it doesn't get absolutely mobbed I'm pretty happy. Especially if my only cost is gas / time / advil and beer for my mogul muscles.

Also, satans stairway is not the best part of this hill. These guys have been holding out on us. There are goods in the woods.

I've often thought that they should actually make the lifelines skiable, would make a huge difference
