After many years of being a Boyne pass holder, we have decided to take advantage of our season passes to "experience" Loon. I've only been once to Loon (many years ago) & it was barely open, so looking for some intel on how to best experience the mountain, trails/glades to hit, places to avoid. I am well aware of the "negatives" associated with Loon ("crowded", "intermediate Mtn", etc...), but looking to form my own opinion. My family along with another family will be there Friday - Sunday, and the skill level is all over the board with some beginner adults & kids, to intermediates to advanced. I expect my typical day of skiing will be somehting like ski with the kids on beginner trails/easy intermediates in the morning followed by lunch, and then maybe get a few hours of alone time late day to explore the more advanced stuff.
I have some specific questions, but appreciate any and all advice/tips on anything from where to ski/what to avoid/where to eat: Any recommendations on where to ski for beginner/easy intermediates (especially on Sat & Sunday morning)?
Recommendation for quick/easy lunch spot? It seems like South Peak could be an area to "escape" the crowds with some decent expert trails or am I wrong?
Thanks in advance.
