Snowmaking has started
Our permit to blow snow begins November 1, and we’ve begun stockpiling in earnest in the past several days. Currently Mt. Craftsbury is starting to really stack up, with around 20 feet through this morning. We’re going to keep at it grabbing what opportunities we can, with the intention of opening for Thanksgiving week. Find out more HERE.

Annual Membership at Craftsbury
