First of all, Northstar’s village is crazy – Stratton-esque. The shuttle system is also pretty convenient. Oh, and A+ for the bathroom in the middle of the parking lot! Two cups of coffee and an hour drive later makes you appreciate those little luxuries. (And the fact that I didn’t need this… Ew. Gross.)

Here are some of my first impressions, what I like, and stuff I’m not too crazy about. Lots of improvements are coming to resorts for the 08-09 season. Let’s take a look at some of the resorts that are upping their freestyle game. |
