Easter weekend

[abc]

Good Friday is an "optional holiday" where I work.

I had in mind earlier to extend the weekend to head further north to some place I can't get to during a 2 day weekend. Sugarloaf being the top contender because I have free lodging and lift ticket from good friend who work there. So it's just gas money and a few beers for my host.

Still, it's a good long drive away. I'm having a serious lack of motivation to drive for 6-7 hrs for mediocre conditions.

More over, I'm undecided I want to burn an extra vacation day to make it a 4 day weekend. (even the "optional" holiday can be put back into the vacation bank for other use. Though in reality, I only use vacations for skiing, and the season is ... over!)

What can one expect condition-wise? I know it's still 2 weeks away...

Take a hike instead. Unless you want to drive all the way to Jay to ski half the trails.

Way too early to even guess I think. Have to wait and see what the weather ends up being over the next week or so...

Superstar should be in all its marvelous spring skiing glory by then. With that annoying groomed strip up the middle....

I know. But I can't wait too late either. Need to put in the request for the extra day off (if I want to take that extra day off, that is) at some point.

i'm going to sunday river or killington next weekend to just burn remaining max pass days. i dont think sugarloaf is worth the drive right now, even with my free lift tix.

Coming slowly into the same conclusion.

Looking at Tahoe & Mammoth instead.

If you're coming from Manhattan, Sugarloaf is basically only 45 minutes further. I definitely prefer the terrain at SL to SR.
