Jim,

I did hook up with Dan the day after the first Pico/ Killington PMTS trip two years ago-we skied Magic (we'd had about 8 inches o very wet snow fall the night before)-it was great day-A sunday with about 6 people on the Mountain.

I think as a destination for a large group over a weekend, B'East is a little too small (compared to a Maine Sugarloaf or Vermont Sugarbush Trip).  But it's a great place to hit on your way to those destinations-or for a shorter and closer trip.  It's about 3.5 hours from NYC btw.  LP it's only 50 minutes from Long Meadow (we have some patrollers from Longmeadow and Wilbraham...includi ng Beastie Boy).

Gary, yeah the true glades, when the conditions are right, are a real joy at this little hill...and the bushwacking, well, that's just part of the East coast bramble experience.  My buddy Al made these videos-I think it's a first generation Sony P.O.V helmet cam.  A couple of the guys just got the Go Pro cameras so we'll see how they stack up.
