I just got back from 2 day trip to Snowshoe with my daughters. Wasn't all open but we had a good time-best vertical in the East besides VT/NE and Cupp Run is like 1.25 miles. I have been a skier for 40+ years and have had over 10 years where I got over 50 days, lived in CO, CA, and ID for 10 years. I was a competitive mogul skier for 15 years and actually raced for Ohio State. My opinion within a 5 hour poke of Columbus or Cleveland - 1.Holiday Valley. 2.Snowshoe 3.Seven Springs. Peek N Peek is fun but Holiday is well worth the extra time and they have a high speed lift. If you are a bump skier you can't beat The Chute at HV either for the East. The Wall is fun for sure but most just go down it on their ass or sideways so it's either ice or spaced out bumps.
VT is good for sure but the weather can screw you and your trip - I totaled a car in Rutland once. For me I would just rather get on a plane to CO. It does help when one of your best friends owns a place at Winter Park you can stay at whenever you want.
BTW - anyone interested in 3 day passes to Snowshoe for $40 each? I was supposed to stay until today but my company decided to have a meeting in Chicago tomorrow so I decided to cut the trip short. PM if interested.
