Sorry, the closest options for ski touring are Killington and Mad River Glen. Groomers and snowmakers need access to the trails and it's dangerous to have uphill skier traffic at the same time as any maintenance that might be occurring. Sugarbush has always been very clear about this. There are also a variety of preseason obstacles such from water bars to snowmaking hoses that could bisect any trail, and these obstacles could potentially trip you up causing injury to yourself or to the hoses themselves. If anyone on this message board was also to find out that you cut a hose with a sharp ski edge resulting in a delay of further trail openings, Sugarbush couldn't be responsible for the angry mob that showed up at your house demanding blood/justice. Violators will be kindly asked to move along, but there is also a third option regarding a mountain visible from the MRV in New Hampshire that has plenty of vertical and a generous uphill traffic policy.
We apologize in advance for any inconvenience this may cause, may ullr have mercy on our mountains.
