Stratton — Located on the highest peak in Southern Vermont, Stratton’s continually enhanced offerings – which have recently included expansions at the five terrain parks and a rebuilt 18-foot superpipe – have ensured this resort’s reputation as the ultimate snowboarders’ retreat in the Northeast. More than any other resort in the country, Stratton has bragging rights: Jake Burton started his snowboarding business at the base, and Stratton was the first mountain to allow him to ride. Get the resort's best insider tips with our Stratton Travel Guide; when planning time on the mountain, note that the season typically runs from late November to mid-April.
