I spent some time as a photo editor for The Tech . This gave me some responsibility in developing, picture selection and targeting, and all of the other aspects of putting together photographs for a newspaper. I haven't been shooting as much recently since grad school has me swamped, but I'm always intended on shooting more. Skiing is my favorite non-MIT hobby. Of all of those, Sugarloaf has become our favorite.
Nothing can beat the rush of skiing the snowfields.
If you like skiing and haven't been out West, this is the closest you can get in the East. I love to ski glades though, ever since I went to Smugglers' Notch on a high school trip. Killington has some of the best glades around, but Sugarloaf does have more. All the times I've skied Sugarloaf though the woods have been icy, but the trails were wonderful due to a great grooming crew. A bunch of friends from high school, Steve, Matt, Garth, Gina, and Mark, came up and we stayed in the Commons.
