Sugarloaf is a very well-developed resort, located in the pretty mountains of Maine.
The north-facing mountain holds its snow well and thanks to comprehensive snowmaking, snow reliability has improved significantly in recent years. There’s a good pod of beginner terrain at the foot of the mountain, with longer blues and some steeper tree-runs further up the hill, just note that the lift system is a little antiquated. The jewel in the crown however for experts is the cat-skiing, operated by the resort itself, which runs on Burnt Mountain to access an extensive area of un-groomed steep terrain.
There is a good selection of accommodation at the foot of the hill, ranging from family-friendly condos located right on the slopes, to several hotels with good facilities. There are also some decent restaurant options, including a microbrewery, but if you’re staying in a condo, pick up some supplies on the way up to the resort and self-cater.
Getting here requires a 2.5 hour drive from Portland, or a 4 hour trip up from Boston, but the drive is fairly easy, utilising interstate highways for much of the route.

Snow Overview
USA
Updated 30/12
Temperatures remain comparatively high on the Left Coast as their poor start to the season continues. The freezing line will sit around midmountain level at most places across the PNW, Frontier Ranges and Tetons, demonstrating how widespread this bad start is. Things do turn colder as the weekend approaches, and with it a few flurries of snowfall, but nothing much to write home about.
The Ice Coast continues to experience bitterly cold conditions, with daytime highs of -18°C (-3°F) expected in parts at times. Flurries of snow will be found overnight, meaning tracks should hopefully freshen up for the new day!
