ok...so i live in vermont and i know the layout...Stowe and Bush are def. the best all around mountains within 45 min. of UVM. Both have awesome parks (usually) and dope pow and mountain skiing...Mad River is awesome for just skiing moguls, pow, and trees if thats what you like. Bolton is a good choice for a night pass because they have night skiing in the park which is a dope setup...i think you can get a college pass which is Bolton, Mad River, and jay for a good price...stowe/bush are expensive but there may be some deals through UVM skiing or whatnot...any thoughts??
