Going to be around the Boston area for presidents day weekend and wanted to hit one of them up. I have never been to SR... is it worth the extra 30min drive or should I stick to Mt Snow? Tkx

Mount Snow does have better parks, but if you want to skiing all mountain/glades then SR for sure. Plus, though SR has been really slacking in the parks for the past few years, this year they've upped their game. Of course it doesn't compare to Carinthia, but it's definitely a decent park for the east and the 8 peaks can't be beat. I went to Carinthia for February break last year and am going back to SR this year for the variety.

Sunday River is a lot more than 30 minute drive than mount snow if I can remember.  I personally like the terrain more at Sunday River.  Its a lot bigger,  definitely worth the extra time in the car to go to Sunday River

Im a Mt Snow regular and I would say Sunday River. Parks are comprable but SR is just bigger and a nicer mountain.

Thanks... SR it is. This season is going to be real short for me so looking for a bit of everything, not just park.

first off, you've never been to sunday river.

Second off, don't refer to it as "sunday" its like referring to mt snow as "mt" it makes no fucking sense.

Third off, Sunday River has 5 parks, all spread out.

If you want convenient, but baller parks, mount snow.

If you want, different parks, big jumps, and good vibes SR!

Either way you can't go wrong unless you listen to scarleton.
