LMAO! we just recently finished up ST:TNG series on DVD from netflix and are going through both ST:TNG crew movies and battlestar gallacteca before dipping back into ST:TOS. no deep space nine love though.

how about top five space based TV shows instead? any one?

I don't believe it, I agree with Marc on this one.

Mad River (when open)
Sugarbush
Killington (great bumps from early to late (except last year))
Jay (4th and 5th can alturnante due to snow or lack of)
Stowe
Sugarloaf

the monthly "top ski area" thread. Here we go again!!

Sugarloaf
Sugarbush
Whiteface
Jay
Stowe
Killington
Sunday River
Burke

Here's my list (places i'v skied)
1. Sugarloaf
2. Sugarbush
3. Sunday River
4. Le Massif
5. Wildcat
6. Tremblant
7. Saddleback

Yea no kidding. Didn' we post on this like 15 times since august?
I'm nowhere near able to rank anyway. I'm too biased.

 

[threecy]

By state, that I've skied:
CT - Sundown
MA - Berkshire East
ME - Sunday River (haven't hit the loaf yet)
NH - Wildcat
VT - Sugarbush
RI - N/A

 

[Zand]

My top 6:

1. Sugarbush
2. Mad River Glen
3. Cannon
4. Smuggs
5. Killington
6. Okemo

5 and 6 are interchangable depending on what I'm looking for. Okemo has much better management and Killington has the better terrain.

LOL good stuff Marc, we do need some snow i think im having dé·jà vu

 

[sledhaulingmedic]

This is such a new concept. How about mine:

Yagoo Valley - Best in RI
Blue Hills
McIntyre
Storrs Hill
Lyndonville

 

[MonkeyBrook]

How could you list RI as N/A. What about Yawgoo Valley?

 

[ccskier]

1. Stowe
2. Jay
3. Sugarbush
4. Sugarloaf
5. Cannon

[JD]

Mtn. Creek
Butternut
Cochrans
Windham
Blandford

 

[RIDEr]

Mtn. Creek
Butternut
Cochrans
Windham
Blandford

By adding Camelback it will put the icing on this list...

 

[Greg]

Mtn. Creek
Butternut
Cochrans

I guess it's easy to rag on the smaller feeder hills when you live in Stowe... :???:

1. MRG
2. Sugarbush
3. Jay
4. Killington
5. Whiteface

I am only including places I have skied, and I'm not including Stowe even though I skied there once, because not enough was open for me to really judge it. I suspect that Stowe would be no lower than fourth once I ski it. I also have never been to Sugarloaf, which I figure might make my top-5. As for putting Killington above Whiteface, that's in large part because Killington gets more snow and in general has more variety.. If Whiteface had more snow, I'd probably stick Whiteface ahead. I find that when Whiteface is stuck to mostly it's man-made trails, while the vert. is great, it's too similar (I find a lot of the man-made snow trails on Little Whiteface to be similar). With the glades, Empire, and the Slides, when combined with the vertical and fewer people, Whiteface probably gets the edge.
