Day trip from Boston?

[kendo]

One of my clients (from central PA) asked for a recommendation for a ski area within 1-2hrs from Boston, to visit during the Xmas / NY's holiday weeks.

His daughter goes to school in the Boston area and they'll be up visiting. Kids are beginner / intermediates and would take am lesson(s) and family ski together after lunch. They don't have any pass products, so I'm thinking one of the indy's for lower ticket pricing.

I was looking at Wachusett, Pat's Peak & Gunstock, in that order. Any rec's for these, or other options appreciated...

I would remove Wachusett and add Ragged to the list.

Thanks. Totally forgot about Ragged. Curious why you'd remove Wachusett?

Wachusett is a Zoo. Gunstock is a great option because they limit capacity. So if that's their choice, tell them to be certain to make reservations.

Id tell them to spend an extra 30- 45 mins and go to Waterville or Loon.

Gunstock over Wachusett, longer & more runs. I had Wachusett passes for many years but have switched to gunstock after moving to NH
