The Boston Ski Show was all about deals. Everywhere you looked had some kind of special going. We’ll be bringing you the best of these throughout the season, but here are a couple which caught my attention:
Black Mountain (800-475-4669) in Jackson, N.H. gets a family of four onto the slopes on any weekend or holiday for just $99. Weekdays its $79. That’s $25/pp for weekend/holiday lift tickets! If you’ve never skied Black, you’ve missed one of the hidden gems of new England skiing and riding. It faces south so there are no cold/windy days, the snow is usually soft and there are never any crowds. It’s where I tell my friends to ski when they are looking for low, low prices and great snow. Check it out.
Pats Peak (888-728-7732) in Henniker, N.H. is bringing back their POP (Pay One Price) Saturday nights: $39 gets you Skiing and/or Riding under the lights from 3 p.m. to 10 p.m. with rentals, plus tubing, lesson tips and entertainment. It’ll start on December 26. Pats is a wonderful little mountain with some great terrain and a
Ski Butternut (413-528-2000) in Great Barrington, Mass., offers a $25 First-Timers Learn-to-Ski or Learn-to-Snowboard early season package from Dec. 4th through Dec. 22. Weekday/non-holiday lift tickets are $25 all season long.
