At Craftsbury, I think the most beautiful place is the top of Elinor's Hill. It's an incredible view of to the east! On their trail map, it's where the 29 circle is: https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5cf93199c24c0a000107ec5b/t/601dd5f354d35170cf2e06f7/1612568051698/2021-01-11-SKI-COCZoom_10.5x17.pdf.

Thanks for the suggestion! We will have dogs with us, so I think we're limited to Fox Run and Cabin Trail

You are correct. Little Hosmer Pond and Great Hosmer Pond, those trails allow leashed dogs too. I haven't skied the trails on the northwest side of Lost Nation Rd in forever, so no recommendations.

Propose along one of their trails. Perfect.

Consider getting someone to discreetly follow to capture a photo of your special moment and/or someone to go ahead and carve a heart with your initials in the snow.

Maybe celebrate the next day at Edson Hill. Dinner if price is no object and you can snag reservations, if on a budget, go for drinks and apps at their bar.

For your lodging, maybe bring her favorite love songs playlist, some rose petals, and lots of candles. Bubble bath if there is a tub.

Thanks for the suggesting! This might make the most sense since we're planning on XC skiing

Edson Hill is a little fancy for us, we're salt of the earth, cozy, take our dogs everywhere with us type people

Got it. Was thinking of maybe making it memorable but it sounds like you’ve got the perfect plan that is more personal. I like it.

What aboutStephen Hunick’s Dog Chapel. I’ve never been there but I’m sure the dogs will like it.

Pull treats out of your pocket for the pups, give them to her to feed them (and to distract her) then pull out the ring and propose when she is finished with the dog treats. Treats all around!
