I never ski this weekend, but I am going through withdrawal and have Friday off. Is this usually a busy day with the MLK holiday and all? Looking for optimum conditions with minimal crowds. Coming from Boston. Thanks!

I am debating Between Sunday River, Sugarloaf or Mad River for Friday. I wouldn't think anywhere would be too crowded Friday. Opening day for the single at MRG should be great.
Not recommended. Give them another foot or so.
Sugarloaf has the most snow and the most terrain. Without a doubt it's where I'd be if I had your options.
+1 I'd skip SL entirely and just spend time in the awesome glades at BMOM myself if I were headed to ME this wknd.Cheap option on the way to Sugarloaf;
Black Mountain of Maine on Friday 9am-9pm for only $15. 8" of fresh waiting to be skied since the mountain is closed Monday-Thur.

Are you driving round trip in a day or staying overnight ? You will easily spend 2+ less hours driving roundtrip to Sugarbush vs Sugarloaf. From the Boston area, Sugarbush is almost all highway driving except the last ~20 miles if you take Exit 9 off of RT 89 in VT.
