Afternoon/Evening

Schedule a flight into Logan International Airport for the afternoon or evening. With a variety of flight options offered from Delta, JetBlue, American, and United, as well as others, there are many carriers providing service into the historic city of Boston. Once in town, strike out for abundant charm with a stroll through the brownstone-lined cobblestone streets of the South End. A reservation and dinner at sought after Coppa is a great way to settle into the neighborhood's ambiance while fueling up for a roadshow to Loon Mountain in the morning.

Morning

Rise, shine, and hit the road early. An easy 2h 30min drive up interstate 93 and into New Hampshire's White Mountains will deliver you to Loon Mountain. Upon arrival, 11 lifts, 370 acres, 69 trails and glades, 3 distinct peaks, state-of-the-art snowmaking, and a collection of highly awarded progressive terrain parks await exploration.

Access the more advanced terrain with a trip up the Gondola and a traverse over to the North Peak Express Quad, by way of a warmup through the wide glades of Lower Walking Boss. Once atop North Peak, test out Upper Walking Boss or Upper Flume, both expert trails where you'll find some of the best snow on the hill.

Legs warm, it's time to spend late morning sampling Loon Mountain's award-winning progression of six terrain parks. Skiers and riders of all abilities can test their skills while riding at Burton Riglet Park, the Burton Lil' Stash, the log cabin wall ride, and the nearly-mile-long Loon Mountain Park.

Afternoon

With North Peak in the bag, it's time to head south. Opened in 2007, South Peak currently boasts seven trails, two lifts, and nearly 70 acres of skiing and riding. Complementing this terrain is a feeling of freedom, with limited lift lines, almost non-existent crowds, and ample room for exploration. The runs on this side of Loon Mountain range from intermediate to advanced trails and are serviced by a high-speed quad. Set your edges and find your line through Rip Saw, Cruiser, Boom Run, and others. Throughout the afternoon, be on the lookout for the many fabulous views of Franconia Notch, a White Mountains icon.

Morning

A westward, 92-mile drive will lead to "The Beast of the East," Killington-Pico. Boasting New England's longest season, 7 distinct peaks, and almost 2,000 skiable acres, this is where some of the best terrain in the NE lives. Make good use of your fresh morning legs while perfecting your bump game. Olympic Gold Medalist and world champion mogul skier, Donna Weinbrecht teaches mogul camps on the mountain year-round.

AFTERNOON

After beating the bumps, don't miss trying your edges on Killington's most iconic run, Superstar, the official Audi FIS World Cup race trail. Once your race form is finely tuned, it's time to get lifted again. Head back skyward to the top of Killington Peak – Vermont's second-tallest peak – and snap an unforgettable late afternoon selfie. When it's time to descend The Beast once again, cut into the Anarchy, Juanita, and Julio glades for some tight, classic, northeastern ski turns before calling it a day.

Morning

From Killington, it's roughly a 3-hour trip back to Boston, with plenty of small New England charm along the way. However, if this is your only day in Boston, it might be worth it to scoot straight back. Boston is an icon all its own and deserves its own day of exploration.
