West is one of those rare gems that need to be preserved. It’s the local mountain that gives great value and offers respite from the crowds on otherwise crazy holiday weekends. That being said, I was just there on Presidents’ Day weekend and there was never a wait for a chairlift even though the locals said it was “busy”. Great apres ski with an outdoor fire and watching ski racing in the afternoon. My only demerit and it’s a big one is that there was no entry beginner terrain. Usually there is a meandering green that’s great for beginner skiers, but most of the greens here had some steep blue sections that derailed our entry green group, 8 kindergarteners. The bunny hill is terribly overcrowded though they have a carpet on one side and a tow rope on the other. Overall, I put this place up there with Magic as one of those places that offer great value away from crowds
