Hopefully you guys enjoyed your cubicles. I was skiing. Conditions are the best they've been all season.

What’s a cubicle?
It doesn’t take much to be the best conditions so far this year and/or was it due to yer gondi ride up with the unmaskers burnin herbs, allegedly?
Looks nice, have fun.

Today I got to ski Great Eastern all the way down for the first time this season. I view it the same as The Wilmington Trail at Whiteface. It's a big long trail that the ski experience is incomplete without. It usually opens much earlier in the season than this.

I have never skied Killington and am looking to go in early March on a Sunday-Tuesday. Recommendations on where to stay? I would like to keep things under $250 a night if possible

@Harvey, Please forgive me if I'm posting in the wrong place or if I'm violating the forum's etiquette by asking.

Killington is my home mountain, but I don't stay overnight there since I am close enough to day trip. Whenever I book a trip, I start by browsing a 3rd party booking site like hotels.com. That always gives me a good idea of what's available, where it's located, what the cost is, and reviews from others who stayed there.

Thanks, Snoloco. I've had a look online at usual travel sites. The Summit Lodge looks like a fairly popular place. I just thought I would check to see if anyone here had recommendations. I guess I have a little more trust in the folks here than those on tripadvisor.

Keep in mind that most of the truly slopeside lodging is on the eastern side of the resort, and Bear Mountain and Skyeship Bases don't have ticket windows open midweek. So you need to have a pass, or pre-purchased tickets that can be picked up through an automated kiosk. The lodging in the basin, meaning anything on the access road is not on-mountain. You'll need to drive up to a base area.

Thank you, this is very useful information.
