Hi. I usually ski at Pat's Peak, but i think that they are kind of snowboard biased, and i find that they dont usually have good snow. Anyone know about some good mountains that are near pats that wouldnt be too far. I wanna know some places that get good snow with some nice glades or good off-piste/natural stuff, and a good park. I've been to Crotched and i like their park, but does anyone know how they're snow/glades are? The only thing is its kind of hard to get to for me, so thanks for your suggestions! +K for answers!

loon has a great park, but their glades/tree situation isn't the best. killington has pretty good glades, but if you can make the journey I don't think Jay Peak can be beat in that department.

waterville and loon for sure. 2.5 hours out of boston. waterville has a poma lift for hot laps in the park. loon can get crowded but the park is big and always fun.

mt. snow is pretty sweet too, and you can avoid boston traffic
