  week days have no waiting

  by dmorris - Mar 17, 2010

  Pros: Long runs, no waiting on Thursdays that I go up, The bar staff are great

  Cons: Some flat areas that you need to skate or hike for access

  Spectacular 360 degree view from up top. Runs are long. Can ski with novice skiers and take different runs and meet up at the end. I go up for the skiing and... Full review

  Don’t believe the hype!

  Pros: Incredible views, blaze your own trail on great backcountry terrain

  Cons: Crowded, overpriced, terrible parking, nonexistent trail markings, trails are disjointed/dysfunctional, minimal base facilities & amenities, less than friendly staff

  Cons: Service, lodging, price, too family-friendly, clientele not everyone's crowd.

  Stay here only if you're snowed in and can't get out. When booking my stay they offered early check-in, got there and they refused. Kids are free 10 and under, so if... Full review

  Pros: Skiier's mountain, Challenging hike to terrain, & Light crowd even on MLK weekend

  Lack of good lockers for storage of ski gear!

  by mr.billrocks - Jan 8, 2010

  Pros: Friendly staff, decent runs.

  Cons: Very poor locker situation, and weak/disorganized shuttle operation

  Close to my house so easiest to go there, but if I lived closer to Stevens I would go to Stevens instead. Good ski school for kids. Great food at the 2... Full review
