Some great footage of the area if you have not been and some good interviews with the locals.

A true gem.

We've been holding our tri-club race there for many years. This year it's Feb. 28. As for myself I skied there so much as a kid I've tired of the place. I would however recommend it to those that have never been.

Never been. As a small Vermont hill for comparison, is better than or worse than Bolton re: terrain, challenge, glades, etc....?

Smaller than Bolten but it has some challenging terrain. It also has good tree skiing. They get there fair share of natural snow to when it flies. It is located right in the spine of the central greens & has good base elevation. Like I said in my earlier post I'd recommend it if you've never been. It has a comfortable base lodge with good inexpensive food in the cafeteria but they don't serve any alcohol on the premises.

That perfect because if I drinking I always bring my own alcohol.

Don't think they'll look to favorably on that in the lodge. Tailgating is a different story.

I went to Dartmouth Skiway earlier this season and no alcohol was sold on site......must be a college owned facility regulation like they have with college hockey arenas
