Palmerton PA which is right by Blue and actually a bit south is 40-48-11 north
Summit NJ which is indeed east of Blue is 40-42-58 so Blue mountain is farther north than summit NJ

Google-earth is great..some roads that seem straight east west..really have a 10-15degree tilt..

Bloomfield NJ is 40-48-11 north the same as Palmerton PA..for referance sake..I love maps..

used to drive south ME to the Stratton on-snow...now that I'm in SoNH stratton is a little further north so no plans to drive any further south to ski than I already am.

I've driven south to grass ski, does that count? Actually, I kind of hope that my first day this season is at Bryce, which is a drive south (from Leesburg... not exactly spitting distance from Canada!). We may try to hit Wintergreen this year, too...

But I generally try to drive at least 8 hours north to ski, which is sad. I can't wait to move back to New England!

Technically, yes. In 2005-2006, I drove south from VT to Mount Sunapee to ski on a regular basis. I also would drive south in 2000-2001 to ski at Killington/Pico from Middlebury.
