I'm planning a weekend trip to ski SB and MRG this winter. I was wondering if someone might know when they're traditionally 90-100% open. I don't want to wait too late in the season to go but I also want plenty of snow on the ground. I'm thinking mid-February to early March is safe bet. Is that a good assumption?
Also, how busy is SB tradtionally during February school vacation week?
Any suggestions for lodging in the area? I found this website: http://www.madrivervalley.com/ski-the-valley and am considering the Golden Lion. It's just going to be me on this trip so I more or less just want a place to sleep and eat that's close by and not really expensive.
Finally, this is going to be my first visit to SB. I won't be able to ski the whole mountain so any suggestions for what peak to hit first? I'm an advanced skier when moguls aren't involved. I love steeps and would like to get some experience in the glades.
TIA
