Why do you have to insult people that have a differing opinion from yours? :evil:

it was a joke, hence the wink...

on second thought i hope k-mart wins so all of the hundreds of guests viewing this site will flock there :D

Most have been the time of night that made me miss the :wink: . :oops: Sorry, I get mad all the time at my son for using the word 'stupid' so I am a little sensitive about it.

cant pick places you never skied
You should have personally skied there

I agree with pizza on this too... how can you rate a ski area you never been too. Even on my list i didnt rate places i didnt ski atleast a few times, just because you need a few days to get the true feel of the ski area

Stowe - Classic vibe
Whiteface - On a sunny spring day it rocks
Ascutney - Hidden gem
Sunapee - Hidden gem #2
Sugarloaf - When I can get there

Never skied the Bush or MRG or Jay, so can't comment.

Honorable mention - Mont Orford, Quebec. C'est magnifique.

Throwing Bricks - KMart, Stratton, Sunday River. You can have all of them.

I mainly venture from my home mountain midweek so liftlines, which kill me, aren't a factor. My weekend list would be different.

i am hoping my favorites don't make the top ten. less exposure keeps the crowds down! people don't know what they are missing!
:beer:

Yes, cannon is horrible, lots of ice, horrible snowmaking and grooming, always too cold and windy... and those narrow trails what kind of idiot cut those???


MRG come on get with the times, time for a hsq in place of the single

burke what a joke, get a new lodge, and make the trails wider

Tux, who would ever wanna hike for there turns... come on add a tram

Magic, also time for a hsq and good snowmaking(sry ran out of ideas to make fun of them :wink: :lol: )

ROFLMAO

1 -The Bush, cause..duh!
2 - MRG, everyone loves it, everyone
3 - Stowe, it's their terrain, heritage
4 - Shawnee Peak(Me) beautiful setting, good terrain, great night skiing for the locals and area school kids.
5 - Magic, great memories and that trip to the hospital in Springfield. lol
