SEARCHING FOR VERMONT’S LOST SKI AREAS
Have you ever heard of Hedgehog Hovel, Buckturd Basin, or Freak Peak? All are part of Searching for Vermont’s Lost Ski Areas.
The Museum’s search for information about Vermont’s “lost” ski areas, those that at one time operated a mechanical tow, has been a more than 20-year endeavor. 175 “lost” areas from Vernon to Newport have been identified and located on a large format map created for the exhibit. “Lost and found” ski areas, and twenty areas still in operation today, are also identified.
Drawing from information, photographs and memorabilia in the museum’s collection, and with help from local historical societies and NELSAP, Part I of Searching for Vermont’s Lost Ski Areas features the unique character of 70 “lost” areas between the Massachusetts border and Rte. 4, from small community tows to bigger areas with multiple lifts.
RED BENCH speaker SERIES
Once a month from Autumn to April we host the Red Bench Speaker's Series. Sometimes it's a panel, other times it's an individual or a movie; every time it’s interesting. Click the link to see the events calendar for more info.
HALL OF FAME
Each year, the Museum honors and inducts individuals into the Vermont Ski and Snowboard Hall of Fame. These individuals represent the athletes, pioneers, and special contributors that have built the reputation of Vermont as a leader in winter sports.
