10e
hopefully eastern Canada - Owl's Head also Tremblant.
Also planning on another Summit county trip hoping for a Vail Day (haven't been in over 20 years) and maybe Loveland (never been) if not then Keystone which i haven't been to in over 20 either. Will hit A-basin.

May hit Granite gorge as well.

Granite Gorge liftline looks pretty legit!

2 lifts to the top. Gondola, then summit quad.

Whiteface is a great mountain, and I feel like everyone in the East should make the trek out there at least once, especially if you can do it in March when there's ample coverage.

I was talking about Gore and skiing all of its 2500 ft.

Oh, yeah. I'm not sure that's physically possible. Still an underrated mountain though.

To be clear, you are stating that tree skiing at Sugarbush is better than tree skiing at Jay Peak and Smuggler's Notch.

IMO, if we took a poll here of people who've skied all three, not only would "eyebrows" not be "raised", but your opinion would likely come in last place in a ranking of the tree skiing at those three, and probably significantly so. My 2¢.

Whatever you say lol.

Would like to do a western Canada trip. Whistler, Revelstoke, kicking horse and venture a little further east and hit lake Louise and sunshine village too, especially since I have the MCP this year. It all depends on work though.

Interesting that though asked several times, I still haven't been able to get you to actually fully commit. One more time........

Should be obvious I would stack Sugarbush up with anywhere save Stowe for anything including trees. You're being like a turd that won't flush on this. Let it go, it's all opinion.

Great. Took a while, just wanted to get that on the record.

Are you that concerned with what others think? Skiing is supposed to be fun no need to get on each other's cases over opinions.

At least we can agree Gore trees are excellent and underrated.

Agreed. Who really cares? If people enjoy SB (and the trees at SB), great! If people don't like them and would rather go elsewhere, that's great too (more for me!)

Stowe and Jay and Smuggs all have terrific trees I'm sure, but I really don't consider any of them options for me on a regular basis as the weekly 5 hour trip to SB from NJ is plenty long enough. I'm not going to say SB is better or worse than any of them, but I'm perfectly happy at SB and think they have excellent terrain (and trees) to keep me interested for many years to come.
