Burke Mountainwww.skiburke.com (802) 626-7300

With every inch of its 2011’ vertical, Burke Mountain believes in all that made Vermont skiing and riding famous. So we’ve foregone wider, flatter trails, and the wider flatter skiers and riders that they cater to, for trails

and glades that respect the mountain’s natural contours. And we don’t rate tough blues as blacks or anything close to a green as a blue. Up North, you earn it. Not everybody gets a trophy, a mentality we observed watching more than 50 Olympians learn to be great at the world renowned Burke Mountain Academy. But we want to exclude no one. So if you can’t ski

or ride any of our 55 trails or 100+ acres of glades, we’ll teach you. After all, we believe everyone should, at least once, experience what Vermont skiing and riding-the True North experience-is all about. And, in one place, at least still is. Join us at www.skiburke.com.

Pico Mountainwww.picomountain.com (802) 621-MTNS (6867)

Thanksgiving Day, 2012, marked 75 years of making turns at Pico Mountain. In 1937 on Thanksgiving morning, Pico Mountain Ski Resort came to life with only a 1,200’ rope tow powered by a Hudson motor car engine a lot of love. Since then, a

lot has changed. But the love that began more than seventy years ago for this mountain still lives today – and it’s as strong as ever. No other big mountain has such small mountain charm, and no athletes love their mountain quite like Pico skiers and riders. Families and skiing traditionalists now enjoy 52 trails serviced

by seven lifts, including two high-speed detachable quads. Gentle learning ter-rain, smooth cruisers and classically narrow New England steeps can all be found at Pico Mountain. Even the most selective skiers and riders will be impressed by Pico’s vertical drop of 1,967’ – taller than 80% of Vermont ski areas.

Six distinct peaks of unleashed potential. Two uncrowded mountain areas. And 2,000 acres of backcountry in the Slide Brook Basin. It’s no surprise Sugarbush was recently named “Best Ski Town in the East” by Outside Magazine. At the heart of Sugarbush is Lincoln Peak—think quintessential Vermont meets modern slope-side living. Here you’ll find the majority of Sugarbush terrain with classic New England trails leading to the nascent Lincoln Peak Village which includes Clay Brook slopeside hotel and residences, a general store, casual and elegant dining, and the new Schoolhouse and Farmhouse. The Schoolhouse is home base for all children’s day ski-and-ride programs, and The Farmhouse hosts Sugarbush’s acclaimed Ski & Ride School which includes the first-timer-to-life-timer program, private and group lessons, backcountry tours, bumps clinics and more. Five miles north Sugarbush’s Mt. Ellen boasts a more casual feel speaks to the ski bum in all of us—but don’t let that fool you. Mt. Ellen is home to Vermont’s highest chairlift, a rippin’ terrain park, and a variety of woods and bump terrain. We think of it as our “hidden gem.”
