Mad River Glen
So what is it that makes Mad River Glen an icon and a mountain that people love so much? It's a combination of many things and for every skier the answer is a little different. Mad River Glen offers the most challenging and diverse terrain in New England with an uphill capacity that guarantees low skier density on the trails even on the busiest days.

Well, they say it better than we. Check out this classic Vermont ski resort. Thanks for the photos, guys.
