Best place I've been to is Tremblant. The mountains got a kick ass park, good snow, and lots of nice glades. The stuff there is pretty cheap to and at night there are pleanty of nice places to hit up if you wanna party

Jay Peak for life. Not for parks, but for the closest you'll get to western skiing in the east. If you're looking for parks/pipe, okemo or Mount Snow.

t-blunt for sure... super cheep seasons pass (if you can manage it), kick ass park, some good competitions, and lots of cool people to session with.

but if park isn't your thing than yea, jay is better... never been to sunday river, but with a pipe the size of the one they got - it's gotta be worth the drive out there

yup tremblant is good but a bit too busy, but by far the best is stowe vermont, same size as tremblant, probably a bit bigger park, and absolutely no traffic on the mountain, no lines at all

switchmisty has got it down, Jay and Mad River are kickass. tremblant is pretty good too, nice park, snow quality is shitty, but it is still a great place to ski.

no offense but i thought mount snow sucked. i went once just to see what it was all about and i was really disappointd...granted i went for one of the worst weeks of weather ever, but i wasnt feeling the terrain. real short trails and no steeps. the park was ok for an east coast park...the usual shitty ass ice landings.

Sunday River has the best value of any Eastern resort, hands down. If you compare lift ticket price to open acerage and number of skiers per open acre it has the advantage. Don't forget a completely sick park, nasty bumps and steeps and some of the best glades around.

One downfall, the mountain could use some more natural snowfall. Not everyone can get 500 inches of snow like Jay Peak.

mt snow sucks...sunday river is pretty sweet, waterville is gonna be nasty next year, they're gonna have a new superpipe(on phil's hill, for anyone who knows), they're gonna have something like 6 or 7 new rails, a lot more jumps, cause they're moving the pipe...it's a pretty small mountain, but i like it
but if you want everything, sunday river...

Being Irish, I guess I should resent the Notre Dame nickname 'The Fighting Irish.' After all, how long do you think nicknames like 'The Bargaining Jews' or 'The Murdering Italians' would last? Only the Ironic Irish could be so naively honset. I get the feeling that Notre Dame came real close to naming itself 'The Fuckin Drunken, Thick-Skulled, Brawling, Short-Dicked Irish'
