Question

im originally from the colorado rockies and right now im here in hot florida and i need to go snowbaording this winter or im going to go crazy. whats the best snowboarding mountains north of here? i like black diamonds, beautiful views, and powder, lots of powder! and there needs to be at least one good long fast run. can anybody help a poor snowboarder melting in florida??

Answer 1

I would go like N/NE like VT and such, just a forewarning the snow will be diffrent from colorado. Also some of their "mountains" are like hills compared to like Summit and Vail and Aspen.

Answer 2

Best bet is to head to the northeast (NY,VT,NH,ME)  for the best mountains and conditions.  But for a quick weekend need for snow you can drive 12hours to Snowshoe, WV.  Only 1000 vertical but a fun mountain with great parks.  Two runs on the backside of the mountain (cupp run) are long bombers that are black dimonds, but its the south so dont expect anything steep.
