Gary 6+ Year Member 1000 Posts ****** Gary: Fully agree that Maine is too far a drive for a weekend of skiing, heck, I've never driven to Maine in all the years I've skied just because of the distance. But, Berkshire East is a very short drive from Albany, I can get there in about 4 hours from Philly. Okemo is a very flat mountain with a little expert terrain, not sure it's worth the extra drive.

Guys,
Does Gore Mountain Work??? I love gore, it's in my top 3 eastern resorts, I like the Town of North Creek and maybe that works better for Gary (and down staters can get there quicker than most VT destinations!). Terrain for all at a decent price with good lodging options. Gore is awesome sauce.
Okemo…well, nothing should hinge on my preferences, but if you hold it there I'll resign myself to reading the trip reports as I hate Okemo, everything about it and just won't ski there. Yep, my crusty curmudgeon side comes out with that place (I'll ski Flatton, K-Mart or Mt. Blow or Magic or Stowe or just about anywhere else in the east but Okemo..there's just nothing there for me).

Love to have any of the Peak Skier Zone forum members come up to the NE PMTS roundup. The skiing in Maine can be fantastic, especially in March. Some of the old Realskier forum members stated "Maine is on their bucket list". Come on up before the bucket decides to get kicked.

It was so much easier to type "Liam" than Superbman (SBM from here on out). I like the Gore recommendation very much as it's a place I've always felt the need to revisit.
