In the spirit of honesty, I have a confession to make. I am a mountain snob. In a nutshell, this means I don’t acknowledge the little ice hills out in the East.

For those who live in the Northeast, that annual trip out West is looking especially expensive, and extra airline fees for every piddling service are not helping. In times like these, people usually look closer to home for their fun. Not surprisingly, winter resorts throughout New York and New England are reporting 10 to 20 percent gains in early bookings and sales of season passes, compared with last year.
