Ski Vermont!

Wednesday, January 13th, 2010

Sugarbush skiing near West HIll House B&B in Warren VT

Skiing at Sugarbush

We have two great ski deals this season.

Ski it if you can! New for 2010 – when you stay during the week for 2 or more nights you can enjoy a Mad River Glen ski pass for $30 per day. (2 tickets per room max.) Plus, if Mad River Glen is closed for any reason we will give you $20 per day per room towards lift tickets at Sugarbush.

Then we have the amazingly flexible Ski-the-Valley package, which offers a great way to try all the skiing that the Mad River Valley offers. When you stay two or more weekday nights (Sunday through Thursday) we can add a multi-day weekday (Monday through Friday) Ski the Valley ski pass for up to the same number of days at a very attractive daily rate. The pass lets you go straight to the lifts at Mad River Glen and Sugarbush, and ski at Olé’s Cross Country ski resort – all on the same day if you wish!

Click on the photo for even more information. Note that these offers are not available during holidays.

The Long Trail – in winter

Wednesday, January 6th, 2010

Vermont Long Trail in winter near top of Mt Abraham - by Kelly & Paul

Long Trail in winter - by Kelly & Paul

Built by the Green Mountain Club between 1910 and 1930, the Long Trail is the oldest long-distance trail in the United States. The Long Trail follows the main ridge of the Green Mountains from the Massachusetts-Vermont line to the Canadian border as it crosses Vermont’s highest peaks.

Access to the Trail is just a few minutes from West Hill House.

Most guests hike on it in the summer months, but Kelly & Paul had a magnificent outing in the December snow and sun – and then Paul proposed at the top of Mt Abraham!
