Hey all
I am not from the states so please excuse my complete ignorance or strange questions, as i am trying to get the best answers to get my trip set up.
Ok so i am looking to drive from New York to a really great ski/ boarding area for me and a group of mates (aged 27 - 33). Had a look and saw that there are a lot of good looking places up north and wanted to find out if anyone had any suggestions for vibey, good snow fall, good slopes anywhere in a 500 odd mile range of New York. Thought about hiring a jeep and going to a place that has great pubs, parties young people and good snow in mid December. Even if it is a little further it is not a problem as i am sure there are great places to see on route, GOOD ROAD TRIPPING is GOOD.
I understand that a lot of really good skiers and boarders look for high peaks and untouched snow, but on a trip like this i am looking for a good place to have a good time. As well as being able to get a cabin or house and be in a busy village type environment.
Thanks to anyone who might have any suggestions.
OH i was thinking lake placid as a good place but as i say its just a thought.
Regards,
Sav.
