Speaking of your education, I’ve always wondered why your parents wasted money on college for you when they knew all along they where just going to hand you a job in the family business anyways.

My parents didn't pay for my college..and who said my college education was a waste. I origionally planned on working on Wall Street after graduation and I'm glad I didn't go that route..and you are a huge dick and hopefully some bad karma comes your way..:argue:

In my mind, northern New England
I'll play.

For expert skiers (1) SUGARLOAF is (2) A MUST. Experts should be sure to hit (3)THE BACKSIDE SNOWFIELDS. The best thing about SUGARLOAF for beginners is BOARDWALK and intermediates will love TOTE ROAD.

Snowmaking here is(4) DECENT. Natural snow is(5) VERY GOOD ESPECIALLY IN FEBRUARY AND MARCH. In general, the weather is VERY COLD IN JANUARY BUT GLORIOUS IN THE SPRING.

The trail layout here is (6) LOGICAL.

The lift system here is (7) SLOW.

The most overrated thing about SUGARLOAF is it’s (8.) DISTANCE, the most underrated is (9)THE TERRAIN VARIETY.

Overall I’d rate SUGARLOAF as (10) THE BEST in the Northeast.

Geez, HPD. You really are getting pretty ornery in your old age. I'm no stranger to scrapping it up with people here from time to time and I find GSS annoying as hell sometimes too, but this is pretty below the belt. Why so mean-spirited lately?

For expert skiers (1) Mad River Glen is (2) the best in the east, experts should be sure to hit (3) Paradise and the woods. The best thing about (1) for beginners is the Birdland chair and intermediates will love Upper Antelope.

Snowmaking here is(4) almost nonexistent, which makes things better, when there is natural snow. Natural snow is(5)required, but general sufficient, if you don't mind a bit of thin cover. In general the weather is unpredictable, like the northeast generally.

The trail layout here is (6) such that all trails go to the same base area.

The lift system here is (7) slow, so expect waits, but it leads to a low skier density, which is nice.

The most overrated thing about (1) is it’s (8.) experts-only reputation, the most underrated is (9) nonexpert terrain.

Overall I’d rate Mad River Glen as (10) my favorite ski area in the Northeast.

For expert skiers SKI SUNDOWN is BUMP CITY, experts should be sure to hit THE BUMPS. The best thing about SKI SUNDOWN for beginners is THE BUMPS and intermediates will love THE BUMPS.

Snowmaking here is THERE TO COVER THE BUMPS. Natural snow is USEFUL TO COVER THE BUMPS. In general the weather is GREAT FOR SKIING BUMPS.

The trail layout here is BUMPED UP.

The lift system here is GREAT FOR GETTING YOU TO THE BUMPS.

The most overrated thing about SKI SUNDOWN is it’s STUPID TERRAIN PARK, the most underrated is HOW INSANELY RADICAL GUNBARREL IS ON A MARCH DAY.

Overall I’d rate SKI SUNDOWN as BEST BUMPS in the Northeast.
