Favorite Trail Map

[BeefyBoy50]

We need to keep the discussion threads coming with all the stoke that is going on.
I was thinking earlier about this because I have trail maps hanging on my walls.
I can spend a long time looking at certain trail maps, imagining I was skiing. Some are more absorbing than others and I can spend an hour looking at a map I already know without getting bored.

With that in mind, what are your favorite trail maps?
My favorite is possibly the Solitude trail map. Not sure why, but I think its beautifully drawn and the trail layout is interesting.
On the east coast I really like Killington's trail map because there is so much to look at.

Favorite... Sugarloaf, just a huge hill and see something new each time you look.
Least...MRG, they could make it more up to date or at least a better "classic" print.

I'm surprised no one at the co-op has played around with Magic's. It is a huge part of advertising and drawing interest.

Sugarloaf and Cannon both have sections around 30 degrees.

Sugarloaf has marked sections into the 40s. This is from the bottom of one of the Snowfield trails looking up to the summit.

Topo says 30ish around the summit, Snowdrifts? Maybe , Southeast side has some serious dropoffs , but not close to the summit. been a while since I skied the snowfields, As I recall they were close to the summit.

I don't see anything near 40 near the summit

Judging by the picture it looks to be in the 30s. If it were in the 40s she could almost be leaning against the trail.

Killington, especially the old ones from the 80s, just cause of the intimidation factor.

I would have to say Stowe since I have a beautifully framed trail map/poster down stairs in the our bar/former kids den/man cave that I picked up at ski show several years ago.

Yeah, if we're talking about PHYSICAL maps, I'm going with Stowe, they're quite beautiful (or at least they were back in the day).

If we're talking about online maps, I'm going with Jay Peak. I like how they have a little description of each glade.

On my wall. Chamonix. Les Grands Montets. Very few marked runs. It appears smaller than Wachuset.

If it were in the 40s she could almost be leaning against the trail.

That is why she is on the edge of the trail. In the middle part she couldn't stop herself from going forward. The only reason I even mentioned it was because in section between two of the Snowfield trails her SkiTracks hit 42* slope. Highest I've ever seen. Even on Goat and Starr the highest I saw was 37*.

Do they get any better than Woodburys?

I guess if your standing in the right spot it could get that steep but I would be interested to see how sustained it is

Well get your ass to the summit this year!

I'm surprised you didn't say Smuggs for online trail map. Jay's is good but Smuggs is better I think
