Truly unique and not for everyone, Mad River Glen hasn't widened and bulldozed trails to make way for snow-making, opting instead for terrain that retains the natural contours of the mountain. There's some snow-making, but only around the base. Locals clear lines in the woods during the summer, so glades are abundant for those willing to explore. The feature lift is a single chair that serves 2000 vertical feet of mostly steep terrain, but there are plenty of other options. Novice skiers have a dedicated lift that offers beautiful gently rolling terrain that starts well up from the base. This is a ski area that tolerates occasionally long weekend lift-lines because uncrowded terrain is the priority. We raised our kids skiing here without worry that some irresponsible fool would crash into them ... and they still come back from Colorado to ski the trails they grew up on. Their dad never left.
