Best of all worlds: moguls galore, smooth groomers, tons of tree skiing, steeps, ledge, pow a week after a storm, rarely crowded.  Great mountain, great "vibe," great people, great skiing.  I'm ok with skiing here 100 days a season!

Been there twice this season after being sick of Killington's crowds. Skiers at Sugarbush are generally friendly and polite and guest service guys are willing to help. My first trip there was christmas weekend when it was raining heavily on Sunday. Called the guest service and they got me an unrestricted voucher without question asked. Trails are most for intermediates and experts. My friends who are still at Green level felt that they can add more beginner terrain. I personally favor the Castlerock section with fantastic views and nice diamond runs. Coverage on those runs are thin with some exposed rocks and grass. WIsh they can make some snow on those. Overall it is my favorate VT resort compared to Killington (too crowded), Stowe (too flat), and Mount Snow (too flat). I'm fine with limited night life as I hang out with friends in the condo only... WIll definitely go back again.

I would ski Sugarbush all the time if I could afford it. The Castlerock area and the mid section of Mount ellen are awesome. There are some body breaking trails at this place. people complain about nightlife at Sugarbush but there are a couple decent establishments tucked into the Mad River Valley. Besides none of that matters if you are here to ski. I have read that they have another 70 acres of glades for this season ready to go. I have been to the Bush numerous times over the last 25 years and have almost always had a great experience. www.new-england-ski-mountain-resorts.com/Sugarbush.html

Sugarbush has some really good runs and glades and they get more snow than Killington and its usually less crowded.  But, it's a little expensive if you just want to do a short trip and don't have a pass. 

This place has beautiful views and scenery.  They do a very good job grooming a lot of the runs and leaving some moguls runs alone.  The entrance to the glades are poorly marked.  Nice long runs from the top to bottom.  It's too bad the two mountains are not connected midweek. 

This mountain is one of, or maybe the best in vermont.  Slide brook wilderness area is awesome.  About 2000ish vertical of all glades.  Great snow, and not usually crowded. Great groomers and some very nice mogul runs.  The only bad thing is how expensive it is for a lift ticket, but its worth it.
