Mad River Glenn over new years?

[steamboat1]

i can be door to door to killington in 4 hours

From Brooklyn? Highly doubt it.

I like leaving early in the am too to beat traffic.

Usually stay at least 2 nights, many times more.

Lodging is inexpensive for me.

Just found out last night they raised the lodging rates after about 6 years of them remaining the same.

It's going from $24 to $26..... lol

Best part is more times than not I have the house to myself during the week.

15 min. to Pico, 20 min. to K.

1 hr. to MRV or 1 hr. to Stratton.

Wouldn't exactly call it a small house either.

Man, I feel spoiled making my pass decisions based on a 2 hour versus 3 hour drive and not wanting to deal with that. I suppose it's all your perspective though. Overnight housing helps too. My back can't handle a 5 hour drive nowadays without breaks and I'm not even 30... going to need a new spine before I'm 50.

Is that why you arn't at Binghamton.

That program at Binghamton was dreamy and the package was the best I was offered but the move would have been impossible with my partner's job so we ended up in western Mass. I was all set to have a pass to Snow Ridge and pray to the lake effect gods.

I live in northernmost Brooklyn a few blocks from the bqe. If I leave at 4 am with a full tank, drive 85, and don't stop, I turn into the k access road at about 8:05. apologies for rounding down

Best case scenario for me is 4:45 from Mill Basin. I don't drive 85.

Actually there's two new leather couches there now.

This thread is simultaneously getting my psyched for ski season, and making my back sore.

Bummer - couldn't get the place we were looking at.

Plans back in flux.

Boom. Found a very nice looking condo a the base of Mt. Ellen, affordably priced.

With a little luck, and a lot of snow, we'll go MRG>Mt. Ellen>Mt. Lincoln, drive home. With no snow, maybe 2 days at Sugarbush > K-ton on the way home. Nice little three day get away. Psyched.

Might be driving up to Prohibition Pig to meet friends for dinner one night but will gladly take restaurant/bar recommendations closer to sugarbush for the other nights.

Peasant is my absolute favorite place to eat in the valley. For a more casual/pub type place, Mad River Barn would be my next choice.

Mad River Barn has a great vibe. We ate there when skiing at Sugarbush. Food is decent, but during full on winter the vibe is cool.

Look great - thanks guys!

Snowside or Fiddlehead?

Mad River Barn is a good choice, Hyde Away is another solid option

Expect pig to be busy.

I'd say expect all restaurants to be busy over a holiday period... Definitely make reservations anywhere you want to go.

 

[dlague]

Mad River Barn gets really busy. It gets loud there too.
