The town of Stowe is beautiful and it is nice to see that not only 25 year olds ski/board and go out at night! But the skiing is certainly NOT anywhere NEAR the best. I really don't know how you could even begin ot say that. I was there for an afternoon and did the whole mountain. I went back to killington for the rest of my vacation. the lines for the gondola were very long and the lifts take forever. the terrain is mixed at best and there is very little of it. Killington, Sunday river, attitash, bretton woods....they all clean stowe's clocks for skiing. But you can't beat the town and that is why I will return this year-just with very low expectations for skiing. Oh and beware-moderate winds close the mountain. this was the case two our of three days when we should have been there-thank goodness we left and went to killington to ski!
Pros: beautiful town
Cons: every expensive lift ticket for long lines, slow lifts and mediocure terrain
