bumped due to Le Massif's new addition,

Camden Snow bowl, would love to do a sunrise tour on a powder day -- catch the ocean views and some fresh pow, easy hike too too bad its far from other Maine mtns...

I've not travelled beyond the 5 hr radius much. So there're MANY mountain I haven't been. Of them, the top 5 are:

1) Sugarbush
2) Burke
3) Wildcat
4) Magic
5) Ragged

Not making the top 5 for various reason:

1 - MRG is also half on that list. Because although I've been there, I haven't REALLY skied it.
2 - Same can be said about Bretton Woods too. Skied there only once. Liked it even though not yet scratching the surface.
3 - And Jay too... Only been a couple times. Never got good condition when I was there.

I can easily come up 2 more to make the 2nd list of 5:

4 - If I'm up there by Wildcat, I'll for sure make a side trip to Black.
5 - Jiminy should be within striking distance now.

Obviously, I can't realistically expect to hit all 10 of them this year. Chances are best for Jiminy (90%+), Ragged and Magic (50/50) since they're the closest. I may surprise myself by hitting some of the far away ones in NH like Wildcat/Black/Bretton Woods. But if that happens, it would be at the expense of the one in VT (Magic/Burke/MRG/Sugarbush)

Mountains in Maine doesn't even come on the radar. By the time I make it up there by car, I could have been in Colorado (by plane)! And the gas money would get mighty close to the plane ticket too.

[SKITODIE]

Magic Mt
Middlebury Snow Bowl
Suicide Six (maybe this year)

[Cannonball]

If NE = New England then I think I've hit pretty much all of them (except for Yawgoo and similar little hills)

If NE = North East then I haven't been to any of the NY areas and would like to check them out (Whiteface, Gore, etc)

If NE includes Canada (which would technically be South Eastern Canadian resorts) then sign me up for Tremblant, Le massif, and the others on that side of the border.

 

[LaneMeyer]

What if you can't name 4 others??
I've never been to Jay Peak and thats the only one I really want to go to.
I really want to go back to MRG and Sugarbush. I haven't been to either in 10 years.
