So yah--I went to the ski expo yesterday and won 2 free tickets to pico!!! I have never been to Pico before (Have been to Killingon 2 years ago--won tickets for that one as well 2 years ago) and know where to stay etc.
What I am wondering is: How does the terrain at Pico compare to other mountains?
-It has about 2,000 (actually 1,967) vertical: Does it ski like Wildcat?
-I am told that it doesn't get as much snowmaking love as killington (which could be ok--I like natural trails) Is it kind of like Jay Peak in this way with glades?
Also--do they run the Outpost Lift on sunday's? That is when my ticket is valid and I know that I must visit that part of the mountain! (there was some thread that said they didn't run it often)
Suggestions of good trails are welcome. I always eat chili for lunch at every ski area I go to (a tradition). So if you want to warn me to stay away from their chili feel free!
I think I might pay the big K a visit as well while I am up there--I never got to go there when everything was open!
