Snow for NYE?

[spankswife]

Where can I go see snow for NYE (2016)?

-We will have a 5yo and an 8mo old (1st time for both)

-We want to go sledding, play, drink hot chocolate. Not necessarily ski

-Long weekend from FL (thinking east coast for the sake of time, but open)

-I use Hilton rewards, but I'm open to other ideas

HOw do you know you'll have an 8 mo NYE 2016?

ETA nevermind. Math is not working in my favor tonight.

Colorado?

Chicago? lollllll

Plenty of snow in Colorado. Most of the resorts have snow tubing if you want a non-skiing activity.

Yes Colorado will have snow in the mountains, but it could also be 70 degrees. It's impossible to predict

Some place in NH, White Mountains maybe, or the Berkshires (sp?) in MA. NH has Storyland too, which kids seem to love, esp that time of year.

If you want to stay on the East Coast, New Year's is tricky. I would say your best bet is Vermont, Maine, or Canada (like Mount Tremblant in Quebec).

Northern MI, but if you are just doing a long weekend, it would be trickier to get there.

Driving? Where from in Florida ( panhandle?)

I would pick a ski resort on the east coast because as long as it is cold enough, they will make some snow. If flying I would pick which every airport I could taxi from to keep traveling minimal after a flight.

We have done this type of NYE at Holiday Valley (yes, in Western NY). Also Greek Peak, near Binghamton, NY. If you are flying up I would fly into Albany, NY, and head to Smuggler's in Vermont, (very family friendly resort) and you would have a better chance for snow. All ski resorts listed, with tubing parks. Some also have fireworks for NYE.

I'd pick a NE State and find a ski resort.
