So catamount is like JUST big enough and JUST close enough to home to justify this visit (for “free” on Indy of course), especially on a day when Vermont is boilerplate. The skiing is cornish groomers in the 30 degree sun. I dig it. There’s a very nice little inn right at the base. And Great Barrington is nearby. I’d come back to bring my nephew and fiance to learn for cheap.
Butternut just up the road is another great place for never-evers. Also cost effective.

Over / under on the number of times Indy opens up passes for sale again? I think last year it was 4 times, so I'm going with that, and taking the over.

I don't know, they are closing this window pretty rapidly due to the uptake already. I'll go 2 more times this year. Their value compared to all other big passes is becoming night and day.

free is the key word in my prior post! the noobs can pay, but i sure wont ski one of these places off the pass.

too many local-ish tiny places to choose from if my purpose is indoctrinating beginners

i love the variety indy has gotten me this season. the usuals (bolton, jay, saddleback, waterville) and a bunch of new to me places (BMOM, black NH, catamount), and i still havent even gotten to magic and cannon, and i also hope to check out ragged
