I like Jiminy Peak. I sometimes I only have half a day to go skiing and its the best place thats relatively close to home.

Killington rules it by far. Just stay away on the weekends and it's the best. Nothing like a Wednesday morning in March with bluebird skies looking down Outer Limits , while everyone else is at work... :beer:

justagirl - You have to be registered to vote in this poll. :idea: Simply stating you vote for NH has no effect on the poll results. Similarly, you don't necessarily have to reply to the thread once you vote. To register click HERE. Then once you Login, you can come back to this thread and officially cast your vote! Have fun!

Near Jiminy Peak
Most of the time I end up at Jiminy, I work there and it is only 16 miles away, and my wife likes it as well. However I picked Vermont mostly for the varity.

Not to be a snob, but I gotta go with Vermont

You could have Vermont split in to Northern Vermont and Southern

Northern Vermont (Smuggs, Stowe, Jay, the bush)
New York (Whiteface, Gore, Hunta, Belleayre)
New Hampshire(Cannon, Loon, Waterville, all the little local places...just great stuff)
Maine(The River, vener been to the loaf...probably the only place in the east I haven't been)
Southern Vermont(KMart, Okemo, Mount Stowe...you can keep Stratton)
PA(Elk, Blue Mountain, Montage, Jack Frost)

Not to dis Mass or CT, just never skiied there.

Skiing is a state of mind, and my favorite state.

I voted for NH though, because it's close and has plenty of variety, all within 2 hours of home.

Yeah, I should bump Maine to #2 just for the ski quality...but there's nothing doing in Bethel...or there wasn't last time I was there...

It's just too far

8 1/2

yeah, yeah, wimp

But the river doesn't do much for families...it gets very expensive
