14 hours ago by motherofalltrips One of the fun things about skiing @burkemountainofficial is the view, which is different than other Vermont resorts. The Willoughby Gap was made by a glacier and has a pristine lake in between the mountains. #skimom #skivermont #skitheeast
1 day ago by motherofalltrips SUCH a gorgeous day @burkemountainofficial today. The air literally sparkled. And from East Bowl we could see the Presidential Range. #skimom #skivermont #skitheeast
