Hello All,
Starting to plan our summer DH trips. We are looking to do 2 - possibly 3 trips this year to the NE for some DH. Have been to Diablo, and Whiteface the past few summers (usually just a weekend), and now looking to make it a 3 or 4 day, multi destination trip where we ride one place all day, travel to next spot, and ride again!
So my question is which should we consider? I know and like Whiteface for the vertical and sheer size, Diablo for its all around great options and terrain.
Can people please give me opinions on the following? Hopefully you can compare them for me with some of the others. Like I said, we don't get to this area much as we are from Ontario, Canada - but short of going out west (or Bromont) the NE offers the most vertical, and variety!
Which should we hit of the Vermont resorts? Probably only be able to do two - which are the best.
Killington, VT - seems best of VT offerings??
Mt. Snow, VT.
Sugarbush, VT.
Jiminy Peak, VT - seems to pale compared to other 3?
Then thoughts on Plattekill? Seems to be a great DH place - is worth a stop during the Diablo trip?
Thanks for any advice and recommendations.
Simon
