For the second year in a row, we have spent Christmas up at Smugglers' Notch in
Vermont. Last year, we enjoyed the place so much that we looked into
buying a small place there. Smuggs is a great place to come with
children and has many benefits such as...
|
 |
-
a great place to ski
-
a wonderful place for the family
-
daycare and ski camp
-
a friendly atmosphere
-
not too far away...
...but not too close either
|

|
As you can see, the condo we have has everything you could wish for. There
is a small kitchen, a fireplace, a stereo, a very good king sized bed, and best
of all, a whirlpool tub - great after a hard day of skiing.
|
 |
|
There is also a good view of all three mountains plus a southern exposure on the
sliding glass door and deck.

This year, the skiing was wonderful! These pictures were taken one morning
from the top of Madonna, the largest of the three mountains serviced by Smuggs
ski lifts. See the trail
map for more details.

This year, the skiing was wonderful! (I had to repeat myself) All of
the snow up here is natural snow.
|
 |
|
This day we had just gotten 8 inches of snow during the night and it had snowed
almost every day before.
|
 |
|
This is a look back at the lift. The cloud tops were just under the peak
of Madonna. This means that they were somewhere in the 3500 foot range.
It was still snowing under the clouds.

There is no way that the pictures can do justice to the awsome view this morning.
