Mount Snow hands down if you want park. I was up there today and it was fucking killer.

Stowe/Smuggs/Jay- for powder and terrain

Sunday River- is fun too but thos are my favorite mountains

Sugarloaf today. I hit up the backside. I ate it on a couple 15 foot cliffs. It was way deep and worth checking out. $69 a night with lift ticket midweek: http://www.sugarloaf.com/VacationPlanning/Packages/Winter/skifree.html

VT: Jay Peak for sure, unless you want park, then go to Mt. Snow.  Killington has a party scene (spring break is why i say that)

ME:  If you are going for Spring Break, i am assuming you want to party as well as ski.  If that is the case...Sugarloaf is where you want to go.  The mountain is sic and has one of the better base areas I have been with good bars and cool people.

Jay - if you don't ride park and want some dope tree skiing

Mount Snow - if all you wanna do is ride park

Stowe - best of both worls, only place in the east (i've skied) where you can take a dope tree run and hit the park in the same run

Loon is not that good until the spring,  but the late season park is ussualy the best in the East.
