We've occasionally gone to the Belfry (on 242 going into Montgomery, closed on Wednesdays) or the Jay Village Inn (in Jay). I haven't really been in the few others around and open this time of year in the immediate area. There are several good restaurants and fast food places in the Newport/Derby area.By the way - most of the eateries on the mountain are closed. (A surprise to me) Any local ones that you would consider worth venturing out for? Bonus points for Asian food.

Thank you! Had another great morning today. Zero lift lines, packed powder and so many wide green trails to explore. I know folks are unhappy bec the upper mountain lifts aren’t running but it was the best ski day for us all season. Easy cruising and no ice in sight. Lots of untracked fluffy stuff on the edges for DD9 to play in. Hoping for one more good day tomorrow before the rain comes in.

We were SOOO looking forward to the Ramen! Unfortunately they closed for the season last week. Very limited operations now but we are in the middle of a fantastic lunch at the stateside cafeteria. Having the best poutine we have had all trip and some excellent clam chowder. The kids give the pizza a big thumbs up too. Just had a terrific morning cursing the greens - felt like we owned the place - very few other skiers today. Such a treat. Conditions still pretty good. Harder packed now and some brownish patches but still quite a lot of good terrain to enjoy. It’s perfect.

Last ski day of the season! (I think!) man the snow melted fast! The main trails are still pretty good but snow disappeared after yesterdays rain and todays sun. Best surface conditions all week so far. Soft from the recent rain. Like cutting through butter and none of the chatter that comes with harder ridges on groomed snow. I took a long slow windy way down in our last run. Gorgeous.
I think my last day was yesterday at Killington. The snow was good and the coverage fine, too, but next week I have to go to Florida, and by the time I get back, I'm not sure it'll be decent.
Here are a few pics.

That looks so fun... you can ski some groomers and hop on the bumps.....
I've been done for awhile. Now Tahoe is getting some snow but Hawaii is calling in a week so guess I'm done.

My season ended yesterday. Well, the lasy mountain closed yesterday.
Skied 147. 2 days more than last season.
Grateful for all the people who worked in the mountain for me to do this.

Aww you look so happy!
I thought Superstar was mostly moguls, based on a friend who loves the bumps. Is it partially groomed ordinarily..? (The entire way down?)

Last day for me. Breck had 13” in the last 48 hours. I don’t (yet) handle conditions like this well but I skied it.
