Favorite Skiing State?

[ALLSKIING]

Yeah, I should bump Maine to #2 just for the ski quality...but there's nothing doing in Bethel...or there wasn't last time I was there...

It's just too far

8 1/2

yeah, yeah, wimp

But the river doesn't do much for families...it gets very expensive

I really need to get to Maine this year... :x

Have you been to the Loaf?

 

[Brettski]

Nope...it's the only place I haven't been...

I hear it's great...

I wonder if the have family packages...I gotta look into a long weekend....

I used to be a VT guy, I grew up in Maine and NY, but NH rules both summer and winter......

I vote for VT but would further qualify that to northern VT. MRG, the Bush, Smuggs, Stowe, Burke, Jay.

I disagree with DMC about NH for BC. I would stick to northern VT for BC.

Seeing as how "close" keeps popping up, I went to www.skidweeb.com to refresh my memory of distances. It still figures driving cost with gas at $2.11/gallon.
Those were the days.

I like the alpine stuff...
The whole being above treeline thing...

Havent hit northern VT for any BC stuff so I'm not 100%...
I havent been to Jay yet...
Or Smuggs where a friend of mine used to have a season pass...

I voted NH, because of BC, and proximity.

My favorite NE resorts are in VT (Magic, MRG, Jay) and ME (Loaf and Saddleback).

I like Whiteface, but it's way far and it's a resort, not a state.

DMC: You need to get to the Loaf with a side trip to Saddleback. Definite must!

I voted for Rhode Island. Unfortunatley, Alabama isn't an option.

snowman!

Vermont for sure for me based on terrain, conditions & proximity to me. The other states are good too but Vermont, especially Northern VT, is just better for me.

 

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

I voted New Jersey..

 

[Ski Diva]

All I can say is, there's no place like home.

 

[mattchuck2]

My favorite Eastern State for Skiing is Vermont.

Even though I do most of my skiing in NY

 

[Zand]

Someone already took my Rhode Island vote... no place like the 'goo.

Vermont.

 

[ComeBackMudPuddles]

I like Whiteface, but, as a state, Vermont wins. Yeah Vermont!! You rawk!

 

[billski]

Austria, Arlberg region. I miss the chain smokers and all the pushing and shoving......

 

[kingslug]

Vermont. Most varied resorts, good snowfall.......................and man is the cheese good!!!!!

Why am I NOT surprised to find VT on top by a large margin?

Although proximity would put NY on my second best list.
