Where do you want to ski this weekend?
In a normal winter, a question like that would raise a lot of possibilities. By my count, there are at least 22 ski areas within a reasonable day trip by car less than a two=hour drive. These include the biggest areas in the East like Killington, Okemo and Whiteface, down to small, mainy teaching slopes like Maple Ski Ridge and Willard.
But this isn’t a normal ski year. The COVID-19 pandemic has imposed lots of new rules governing where and when you can go, from quarantine regulations on out-of-state travel to often mysterious capacity limitations just about everywhere.

GLENS FALLS When Winter Storm Gail brought more than 30 inches of snow to some places in the greater Capital Region earlier this month, Section II Nordic skiers rejoiced.
Then, warmer temperatures and rain dampened their spirits and left them scrambling to find a suitable course for Wednesday’s season-opening Shenendehowa/Saratoga Invitational.
“We were so excited because we went so long into December with no snow and then we got all that,” Mayfield senior Delaney LaFontaine said.
