How is Jiminy for newbies?

[MRGisevil]

I'm bringing three friends up to Jiminy Peak who have all been skiing only a couple of times. I go to that mountain a lot but I've never really paid attention to what places are better for beginners and where on the Mtn. they will just end up being in the way.... one thing I'm concerned about is that there tends to be alot of people who dart out from the diamonds onto the left bank trail and my friends are going to have a hard time dodging potential accidents. Is there a place on the Mtn. I can take my friends where they don't have to worry so much about who's popping in from the left and can worry more about learning about balance and stability, etc.?

Not really. Unfortunately both easier ways down (Left Bank and West Way) are main arteries for many other trails.... I don't think there are many out of control skiers to worrry about, but def. some traffic.

Thanks for the input!

While the bottom of left bank has several of the diamonds dump out onto it, they are all in a area that is straight lining it on the runout. So you wont have to turn quick while already in a turn. West way has lots of trail going off of it, but none that dump onto it.
