Mount Snow


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.

I have been skiing there for a very long time and I love every second of it. My only problem is the price of food. It's pretty bad. If you can, I would suggest bringing your own food. Other than that, amazing trails and lots of diverse runs. It's a lot of fun.

Pros: steeps (relatively), great snowmaking, borders have their own area

Cons: Proximity to NY and NJ. The weekend Joisey crowd.
Best hill south of K-Mart

Mt. Snow is the best hill south of Killington, unless there's been a dump of real stuff, then just go direct to Magic, and forget everything south of MRG and Sugarbush.

It's not a complete poser's hill like Flatton or Nokemo, and when conditions are OK, Ripcord is a taste of vertical. The tree skiing is also decent on the North Face.

They made a completely different area for the knuckle draggers over on the south side of the place, so they scrape off all the topping somewhere completely separate from where civilized people go. There's also a lot of "areas" at Mount Snow, so just about everyone can find something they really enjoy.

On weekends the NY/NJ crowd can spoil this area as they can everything within driving distance, so be prepared for the equivalent of the Gotti family in the liftlines, making it a nasty cluster for everyone involved.

Great place, and the most fun you'll have before Killington as far as terrain, and a place that really tries hard to give you a good product for the price.

Pros: close to the cities

Cons: close to the cities
Beware the crowds
kelly001 reviewed February 27, 2009 at 8:35 am

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.
