Best Night Skiing Resort in the Northeast

[TropicTundR]

Just wanted to know which one has the most diverse open trails for night skiing.

Are there some with lighted glades?

 

[ALLSKIING]

From what I have seen probably Jiminy Peak.....I don't think any place offers lighted glades.

Lighted Glades are like the Lochness monster. Everyone secretly hopes they exist, but they don't

Probably areas in PA. and NJ have lots of lighted trails.

The Poconos. This is the only thing the Poconos has/does better than everyone else; 100% lighted terrain.

Lighted Glades are like the Lochness monster. Everyone secretly hopes they exist, but they don't

And if both existed, lighted glades would probably be the more dangerous of the two.

Best I've skied in New England would be Shawnee Peak, Maine.

I've ducked into Final Frontier Glades at Crotched at night.

If you count Canada Bromont is impressive.

Thanks for the quick responses, I have to admit Camelback has not disappointed in being 100% open at night. There's also less traffic.,

lighted glades, how do those work?

 

[TropicTundR]

Bromont and Final Frontier Glades will go on my hitlist when visiting "distant relatives"

Bring a bright flash flight.

Been to Jimminy Peak for daytime only...enjoyed the cattle bus ride to the lifts,...moooo!

While were at it, how about some snowmaking in the trees. Nothing like some nice whales in the woods

I'd say Jiminy Peak. Not the most night terrain, but interesting. Whitetail is a pretty steep trail in the day (for MA), now add less than ideal visibility, a shatload of ice, and hoards of people, and you get one of the toughest trails in the east. Left Bank and West Way/Grand Slam are fun if you like playing "Dodge the Beginner Skier/Rider". Plus, you get to lap it with the six pack which is pitch black near the top.
I've never heard of lighted glades. Great idea though.

Stoneham north of Quebec City claims to have the largest night skiing "network" in Canada at 180 acres.
I would guess Seven Springs or Holiday Valley might have the largest acreage in the eastern US.

Just skied there last night. It is impressive. The whole place was lit up so much you could even ski the lower angle glades.

 

[steamboat1]

Stoneham is good but in my opinion Mont Sainte Anne is better. Nothing like riding the gondola up at sundown.

+1 Love that place.

I'd have to say Jiminy is number two. The 6 pack is fast and they do a fairly nice job grooming. Only problem is that it's ludicrisly expensive. A beer is like $8 at Christiansen's! :-o

Yeah, it's the opposite of Kelly Canyon, ID where I was last week. When they say "night skiing" they're not kidding. I made sure not to stop in some of the darker areas, was affraid I'd get hit. Good time though.

You came all the way out here and skied Kelly Canyon? Cool hill dont get me wrong, but Ive just never heard of that kind of ski trip. Family in the area?

Id go with Shawnee Peak as well. Arguably one of the more underrated ski areas in the whole country IMO, and not just the night skiing.

Even though its short I htink Fat and Happy is one of my all time favorite trails. Not sure why, it just is.
