I'm not Loaf regular but it's a great mountain. You would have fun. Check on craiglist for some places to stay or www.sugarloaf.com, or www.buywithme.com, what I'm doing for January trip. Its snowing there since yesterday. So you might get some nice fresh snow. Yes, it's far up and not much around so you should have some food with you, dinner you can get near by or at the resort restaurant/bar.
