Some of 91 yes. Nowhere in the state is east of the CT though. That's the borderIsn't Vermont also "east of the Connecticut River/I-91"?

That's true, but many consider Vermont to be "Northern New England."Isn't Vermont also "east of the Connecticut River/I-91"?

It was faster for us on I 70 actually. But we did have the back route as an alternative. It does take about 15 minutes longer but doable. We generally check waze to see which route is fastest and try to beat that. Like I mentioned we would go to either on days where we knew traffic was lighter.
As far as, an every weekend trip it is tough on I 70.

We did Epic and A Basin passes for next season.
I had a friend that went there as well when it was still WNEC. My brother went there for 1 year too but then transferred to a school in NJ.
Regarding Vail properties, does anyone have any intel if the bike park at Mount Snow will operate for the Summer of 2021? Usually by now I've received emails about the opening date, operating schedule, and season pass purchase information. I've checked the Mt Snow site and its still in "winter" mode.

There's a little bit more to Western New England than a college, there's a language.
Sound patterns historically associated with Western New England English include the features of rhoticity (full pronunciation of all r sounds). Vocabulary features that predominate in Western New England English include grinder for sub (submarine sandwich), and tag sale for garage sale (predominant in Connecticut and Western Massachusetts)

I got into their summer activities page and it no longer list the bike park (only golf and scenic rides). Golf page was updated with 2021 dates and rates, so maybe its not going to run this year.

Okemo is opening the mountain bike park on June 17, lower mountain only. The 2 summit bike trails are closed this year due to the Green Ridge chair replacement. Mount Snow still hasn't posted a schedule yet.

Was up on their social media pages today that the bike park opens this Saturday for the season.
Getting upstaged by the uproar they created yesterday that they're going to be charging for parking for roughly 50% of their parking spaces this coming season on Weekends and Holidays and 2 lots (the 1 right behind the main base lodge and the 1 at Carinthia right next to the hill) seemingly every day this coming season....
Not a good thing for sure, and likely going to keep the Dover Police Department busy ticketing cars parked illegally on the various access roads when the free parking spaces are filled and folks don't want to pay for the closer in spaces

What a clusterfu&# it's going to be on peak days when the free parking is filled by 9. Even some Fridays I'd think. All to enhance the guest experience.
Directions By Bus, Train, or Shuttle | Mount Snow Ski Resort
Mount Snow offers a variety of parking options from preferred paid parking closest to the slopes to free parking just a short walk or shuttle ride away.
