Skiing Information: The
largest single-peak mountain east of the Mississippi is Mt. Ascutney which
offers fabulous skiing & a new high-speed detachable quad. ASCUTNEY is five
minutes over to the next village, but if you want some real challenging and
greatly diverse skiing, you'll have to check out OKEMO (15 minutes) and
KILLINGTON (20 minutes away). For something smaller, SUICIDE SIX is a nice
family resort (20 minutes)

"Vermont
is a state I love. I could not look upon the peaks of Ascutney,
Killington, Mansfield, and Equinox, without being moved in a way that no other
scene could move me. It was here that I first saw the light of day; here I
received my bride, here my dead lie pillowed on the loving breast of our eternal
hills..." President
Calvin Coolidge, 1928.
