Sugarloaf, ME
Unlike Sugarbush or Sunday River which sport many peaks; Sugarloaf is one, single, massive hunk of mountain. Both very large and very tall by New England standards, Sugarloaf has the breadth to provide varied terrain for all experience levels. I was particularly enamored that you could lift to the top of the mountain (4,200 feet high) and just as easily take green circles or black diamonds all the way to the base - and its a long ride! This is ideal for groups of skiers with varied skill, age, or hangover.

I’ll give you what you came for early. Here is my latest movie, and I’m really happy with how it turned out. I think this video captures what I enjoy most about skiing: I love the action - the thrill of downhill skiing is absolutely addicting. Pushing yourself and pushing the mountain, doing something dangerous with confidence, and remembering your self-reliance. I love getting outdoors - the size and scale, the engagement of my senses, and the feeling of being within nature, not just an observer of it. I enjoy a drink afterward - skiing can be punishing and a hard fight should be followed by a good drink. Its just the way it should be.
