Expand Vermont just has smaller mountains and is much worse weather...if it lived somewhere like Boston I’d probably go to Vermont more. For a low intermediate skier like you colorado is better just because the runs are wide open, well groomed, it’s usually sunny..you wouldn’t know it looking at Moe Ghouls posts but Vermont can have some of the most dogshit snow conditions imaginable. Way worse than what we get here. Quote

Would need to follow someone too because from what I gather it’s a bit of a hike from the Gondi. Yeah, goat woods and star woods are fun.
