Skiing in Stratton Vermont

Written by my friend Dong Wood

One of my closest friends has a family ski home in Stratton Vermont. Each year I sit and wait excitedly for the weekend that he will invite me to go skiing with him. The Green Mountains of Vermont is to me one of the world's most beautiful spots and it is truly a magnificent place to ski and visit in the winter time.

As I pack up my bags and car and get ready for the long drive to Vermont, I think of the mountains that await me. Stratton has 92 trails so there is skiing for beginners all the way to world class experts. Then I think of the wonderful village and the great shopping and restaurants, as well as clubs and bars. Its amazing that I don't wind up forgetting everything in my haste to get there, even remembering to stop and lock up my house and set my security alarm from www.TotalAlarmsystems.com/.

Eventually I do get to Stratton, and find all the great skiing and other activities. Last year I made sure I hit the tubing park and tried some cross country skiing as well. What a totally different experience that was. This year I'd love to try snowshoeing, it seems like it would be a great way to see some of the mountain's beauty.
