This year it was voted #1 resort in the East by Ski Magazine and rightly so.

The last I knew, sled heads can rent a condo and ride into the parking lot, and ski/ride out the back door to the slopes.

I could care leass about groomed terrain / cruisers which is why the section of the mountain they call the Kennebago Steeps looks intriguing. Looks like all black/double black diamond trails/glades. Is this section not as challening as they make it sound?
