From the Back Cover

New England skiing finally gets its due in Peter Oliver's witty, perceptive guide to the very best skiing east of the Rockies. Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine all offer unforgettable skiing and unforgettable apres-ski. New England skiing is intense, rich in tradition, rich in challenge, rich in skier services, from modern mega-resorts to intimate ski hideaways. Peter visits all the important ski mountains in the East. With Peter, you will not only learn about the best runs - which runs are best for which skiers, at which times of day, in what conditions - but also about the legends, the local stories, the local hangouts, and the locals themselves. Peter tells all: the times to go and the times to avoid, how to cope with cold, how to deal with the East's legendary hard snow. With the new section on snowboarding, he tells the snowboarders the best places to shred. He reveals the secrets of cost conscious skiing, bargain days, packages, multi-ski area passes and of course, describes the last word in luxury too. (6 x 9, 256 pages, maps, b&w photos)
