Haven't checked the map for Stowe and Sugarbush, but you're right in that getting around that long Lake Champlain from Toronto is a big detour into Vermont. 

We skied Whiteface last Feb. and had a great time.  The only place where we found the notorious Whiteface ice was at the very top, but there was a lot more mountain below that to keep us  amused for days.  BTW, they've opened up a new chair and some brand new runs this year, which will add some breadth to its already impressive height.  We saw the cuts in the woods last year, and they looked like great blue runs through the trees.  Sheltered from wind, too, it looked like.
