Stowe is the highest peak in Vermont. With that being said there are some great steep runs and many options for woods. The best time to go is mid week as you will get a much quieter experience. On weekends lift lines may be 10 minutes long or even longer on holiday weekends. If I am ever looking to get away from crowds I will head over to the Spruce side and take the sensation quad. This lift accesses intermediate/advanced terrain only but is on the beginner side of the mountain. You cant beat the scenic views from the Gondola or the speed of the four runner quad. For food, there are two restaurants seated at the peaks, the Octagon and the Cliff house. If you head over to Spruce side there is a cafeteria as well as more fine dining in the hotel and some smaller places scattered around. My current favorite trail is Nose Dive, a steep wide groomer.
