I grew up in that region. Killington has the most variety and I would think this would be a decent weekend. Just before Feb vacation. Folks might be saving the pennies one more week.

A few of the www.Killingtonzone.com folk post here also. Ski dork moderates that board over there. Some very up to date info and good people.

Just another place to look.

Pico would be the "best bang for the buck" if you are only skiing on Sunday. Lower cost for lift tickets, less crowded and less time in lines , more time on the mountain

I suggest you post this question at www.killingtonzone.com. There are a few locals that post there that also frequent Pico quite often. They can probably give you an accurate assessment of the current condition of Pico. I am sure that Johnny the Jibber and Ozzy will answer your questions.

pico is definitely the best bang for da buck in that area. i have no idea what conditions are like right now but 17 trails is rather low and probably not worth it unless they have discounted their tickets.

I'll be at Okemo on Sun. but only because I'm a member of the Ct. Ski Council, and that's a discounted day there. :idea:
