Vermont The warmest spot at mammoth Killington is Bear Mountain, on the southeastern side of the resort, almost always a few degrees warmer. Morning suns bathes its slopes and softens the snow, especially welcome on Outer Limits, the mountain's steepest mogul trail.

Locals know to park right at the Sun Bowl lodge to avoid the ticket lines at the main lodge area.
The Sun Bowl's sun tends to be strongest in the morning and good until about 2 p.m. The Sun Bowl is home of Sunriser Supertrail, one of the widest trails in New England, but you'll also find a selection of New England-style trails that meander through trees. The Sun Bowl also has its share of relatively narrow, relatively easy paths through the woods. Stratton Mountain Resort, Bondville, VT 05155. Take the Super Bravo chair up and drop right in.
