Data is from SnoCountry, http://www.snocountry.com/snow-reports/us/northeast. I didn't include Sunday River because they don't report acres.

They'll need to get creative to toss a number out there that competes, considering the World Cup terrain that is currently closed. If they reported 'acreage of trails with snow blown so far this season', the number might be more appealing...or less appealing depending on your perspective.

Acre*feet of snow blown? Gallons of water pumped? Dollars spent? There's a metric out there that secures them top spot; surprised they haven't found it.

It would still be North Ridge only if it weren't for people on here complaining that they weren't top to bottom.

And then there's this:
Federal officials have approved a new privately managed EB-5 regional center that can provide a conduit for millions of dollars in foreign investment to flow to Mount Snow and affiliated ski resorts.

Peak Resorts, Mount Snow’s Missouri-based parent company, announced Thursday that U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services has OK’d creation of the Great North Regional Center to manage EB-5-funded development at its Northeastern resorts.
The approval means Mount Snow can continue to pursue significant amounts of foreign funding.

A hundred million+ can effect a lot of changes.

If a Poma is well maintained it is just as good as a brand new Poma. It is a high speed detachable. /s

I could go for another Pomalift on the true top of Ramshead. Small, cheap, fun, run it only when there's snow.

Pretty sure Killington has a plan and it doesn’t matter what people think on here. That’s laughable.

Go out and ski and enjoy yourself. Skiing is great today.

Are you a test tube baby of highway turd? Shut up!
Don't question mountain ops. Your being disrespectful. Buy a pass , get in line and shut your corn hole. Quit posting and enjoy the snow you whined about. More snow time and less screen time does a body good.
