Nice pic, and that's a pretty good size drop!

When 7 feet fell at Hunter there where people jumping off the cliffs under the Quad..they had to be dug out though!

Under the single chair at MRG..

There is a good cliff at Berkshire East if you basically get into the glades on the left side of the mountain and then keep going downwards further than you are supposed to.. you will encounter a formidable cliff with a real sketchy landing.

Rumble @ Sugarbush has something like a cliff... more like a giant rock that overhangs ... depending on amount of snow cover it may or may not be exposed. It's probably a good 8 or 10 foot drop at a very steep pitch in a very narrow section of trail

The Ridge at Jay Peak has a variety of different cliffs if you are willing to explore beyond the beaten path.... well I don't know if they would qualify as "cliffs" but definitely some very steep rocky stuff.. depends on how much the show has melted how "cliffy" it is.

And there is one pretty much decent I'd have to say 15 foot cliff tucked away in Bolton Valley's trail "Adam's Solitude"

Gotta have a ton of snow for the Church, and a buddy, and a radio incase you f*ck yourself up. Seriously not for the faint of heart...

I spent many a midweek powder day in there in the late 90s.
