    I appreciate Sugarbush and their heroic efforts at times like these. The only thing that keeps my hope up is their willingness to go for broke as soon as the weather turns cold. There have been...

    This is very true. While most of our guests are coming to ski Sugarbush, I'd say 1/4 of them choose the MRV as their base because they can also take a day off to ski Mad River. The two resorts are...

    It was great to see the Farmer's Market open and thriving again last Saturday. It helped that the weather was wonderful, but even so, with no tourists to speak of half the valley must have been there.

    It was nice to see the site cleaned up this last week. Does anyone know what the owners plan to do? It's such a great site in the village and I hope that they rebuild in some way.
