Mount Snow is one of eastern USA's largest resorts as well as Vermont's closest big mountain to the New York City area. The sprawling resort features five separate mountains with north, south and east facing slopes.
A highlight for snowboarders is Mount Snow's Super "X" Pipe, a nice treat from the X-Game's. Additional highlights include the "Grommet" -- a special for-kids-only terrain park (adults must be accompanied by a child age 12 or under).
Off the slopes Mount Snow has built the Grand Summit Hotel and Crown Club. The hotel includes a heated outdoor pool and ski-in/ski-out accommodation to the base area.

Mount Snow...a place where Ive spent most of my adolescent winters. Theres something for everyone here. Beginners will find nice wide bunny hills, and long cruisers (see Long John/Deer Run). Advanced skiiers should head to the North Face ASAP for some great runs. For those seeking pipes and parks, head to Carinthia where you'll have a whole mountain face dedicated just for you guys.
Since it is the biggest/closest mountain to NYC in Vermont, sometimes it can get a little crowded, but really no more than any other VT resort. I think crowds are just an unfortunate part of the east coast .
Nightlife is decent. The Snow Barn, and The Silo are 2 of my favorites. There are some good places if you're looking for a nice sitdown meal too. TC's and Panchos Wreck in Wilmington are good for families.
Theres no shortage of lodging. The Grand Summit hotel at the base of Mount Snow is a little pricey/classy for being the 25 y/o ski bum I am. The Snow Lake Lodge is more my style, and its a good value for the money, and I stress that. If you dont wanna stay on mountain, theres plenty of hotels/motels on Route 100 to rest at for the night.

It's one of the bigger resorts in Southern Vermont so it can get pretty crowded as it is quickly accessed from MA, CT or NY. The North Face has most of the more interesting skiing for advanced skiers/boarders. It can be a little less crowded too. Glade skiing is not really the focus of this place.
