It's actually not bad, I was there yesterday (4/7) and as a result of the big park closing they've made the bottom jump and middle left jump in Gulch significantly bigger...It starts at the top with that down rail, then trap box into the urban down rail, weird sideways bonk rail, hip, wall, oil drum, then a choice of a flat rail or a flat box, then they added a new up box to the right of the first jump that absolutely launches you, then rainbow on the right and bigger jump on the left, down into the flat-down box, then the bottom jump. That's pretty complicated but the setup is similar to how its been the whole season with a few minor changes.

It's in the middle of southern Vermont so depending on how far to the right you are it probably wouldn't take you that long to get there

I'll be at Snow friday with one or two kids if anyone wants to meet up. I have bright green oakley axis pants and a black windbreaker or maybe a hoodie cause it's gonna be warm as fuck.

From their website:

All good things must come to an end, however. We'll be open Monday, April 21, closed April 22 - 25, the reopen for Friday, April 25; Saturday, April 26; and Sunday, April 27, and then the lifts will stop spinning at Mount Snow for the season. We were the first ski area to open in Vermont, and we’ll be last to close in central/southern Vermont. Yes, the southernmost ski area in Vermont has lasted until April 27, and we owe much of it to our new fleet of fan guns. And stay tuned, cause we'll be installing more this summer.
