im going to smuggs this weekend so im not sure.. stowe is a really sick mtn.. their park is decent but i think their better known for the freeriding. the trail under the gondala is super fun.. you get going really fast.. take toll road.. its their longest trail and has alot of fun jumps on the side of the trail. but be prepared for a slloww ride up when u get to the end.

i was at smuggs a few weeks ago, it was pretty gnarlicious, they have some pretty good glades, but only two tables and two rails. but the lifts are only mad slow doubles, which is annoying

I only like stowe if they have good snow, otherwise it's pretty boring. However if they have good snow glades and the backcountry stuff is some of the best in the east.

ok well u should all stop bitching at eachother and answer the kids question. If theres fresh at stowe find someone who knows what theirr doing and hike the chin off the top of the gondola, also there is a fun powder area and cliff off perry merril. You get off the gondola and go right onto perry merril, and instead of going around hte big bend past the entrance to cliff trial, you cut into one of two trails into the woods, theyll probably be tracked so u should find em on the left. Theyll lead u to the cliff and the open area, if u hit the cliff fast or build a lip on it it can be lots of fun. hope this helps

It's better than last early season, but that's not saying much. We still have a few months left and could def. get some big dumps. I'm trying to stay positive.
