EDIT: With the exception of a few they are hills. :p
I rode wawachusette almost every weekday they were open for 3 straight years. that hill blows, better than nothing.
Conversely I road the same girl everyday for over 4 years, yes even the "special" days, just rode switch.:fmicon:
Hey Ive ridden 93 mountains in 19 states at last count, but no time to list them all here. I have about 200+ days on snow In Windham NY, so that # 1, Now Im mostly west coast, a few different mountains every year.
Back in College I was all about this little dopey hill in Ny Near Lake Geaorge Called Hickory Hill that I remeber the most, prob skiied there 40 times... no grooming, snowmaking, hell there are hardly and trails and no lifts; just a high speed detachable Poma to drag you up the side.
Here why its tits:
Stupid cheap, only open on weekends, all the snow piles up all week, then its freshies in the glades pretty much all day about as good as your gonna get on the east coast. Anybody been lately? If its still open and Still the same, Im jonesing to go back.

I grew up back east, and have skied all the places you mention. Compared to Alta and Snowbird they suck. I still enjoyed the east, but it is far inferior to the west. You can have Vermont, I'll take California. I will never waste my time living in the east again.Quote:
