    The Overview
    MF
    Michael Fulton
    Melbourne-based skier and snowboarder with 50+ resorts across 5 continents. Specialises in Australian resorts and international resort comparisons.

    Attitash Mountain Resort's summit reaches 2,350 feet, dropping to a base at 600 feet across 68 runs spread over 311 acres near Bartlett in New Hampshire's White Mountains. Terrain splits 46 per cent intermediate, 28 per cent advanced and 26 per cent beginner, with no expert-rated runs, and average annual snowfall of roughly 61 inches. The resort carries Epic Pass affiliation. Seven lifts, including four quad chairs and three triple chairs, serve the mountain alongside one surface lift.

    Attitash operates as a genuine twin-peak resort, with terrain spanning both its original mountain and the later-developed Bear Peak, connected by a network of trails that give skiers a considerable variety of terrain to explore across the combined footprint. The resort's name, drawn from an Abenaki chief, reflects the deep regional history of the White Mountains area it calls home.

    Phil Robertson founded Attitash in 1965, opening with 41 acres, four trails and two lifts, and offering free skiing on its 26 January opening day. In 1969, the upper mountain was developed with a 5,000-foot chairlift, substantially increasing accessible terrain and tripling the size of the base lodge. The resort added New England's second alpine slide in 1976, a 500,000 US dollar investment that sold 200,000 tickets in its first season, and introduced snowmaking in 1981 with a 1.7 million US dollar system covering 110 acres.

    In the mid-1990s, Attitash underwent a major expansion with the development of Bear Peak, repurposing a partially developed 1960s ski area proposal and adding more than 100 acres of terrain, transforming the resort into a genuine dual-peak destination. Vail Resorts completed its acquisition of Peak Resorts, including Attitash, in September 2019 for 264 million US dollars. Adult daily tickets run from 89 to 139 US dollars.

    The Terrain

    68 runs across 311 acres skiable

    Attitash Mountain spreads across 311 acres (126 hectares) on two linked peaks in Bartlett, New Hampshire, with 68 runs falling 1,750 ft (533 m) from a 2,350 ft (716 m) summit to a base near 600 ft (183 m). The split is 26% beginner, 46% intermediate and 28% advanced, so it is a strong blue-square mountain with a real black-diamond streak. Snowfall averages around 61 inches a year. The original Attitash side and the newer Bear Peak side each carry their own mix of cruisers, which means a full day rarely repeats itself.

    The sharpest pitches sit in the Ptarmigan area, where Upper Ptarmigan, Middle Ptarmigan and Tim's Trauma are the black-diamond tests, and Ptarmigan is said to be among the steepest in the East. Easier skiing runs down Counselor's Run and Inside Out, while Ammonoosuc and the Upper and Lower Cathedral trails suit solid blue-square skiers. Bear Peak adds seven glades, and the mountain has three terrain parks plus about 60 acres of tree skiing overall. Attitash suits families, intermediates stepping up and park riders, though skiers wanting true double black terrain will find supply limited.

    When to visit Attitash Mountain

    The 2025-26 season at Attitash Mountain Resort ran from 6 December 2025 to 5 April 2026, a roughly seventeen-week season supported by average annual snowfall of around 61 inches. Extensive snowmaking, dating back to the resort's 1981 system investment, supplements natural snowfall to maintain consistent conditions throughout the season.

    Midwinter, from December through February, typically brings the most consistent conditions across Attitash's twin-peak terrain. As an Epic Pass resort within the Vail Resorts network, Attitash draws substantial visitation from Epic Pass holders alongside its traditional White Mountains visitor base drawn from the broader Northeast.

    The resort's dual-peak layout, spanning the original mountain and Bear Peak, gives visitors considerable variety across a single lift ticket, appealing to families and groups seeking varied terrain. School holiday periods bring substantial family visitation given the resort's intermediate-and-beginner-weighted terrain profile. Weekend crowds draw heavily from the greater Boston and southern New England region.

    Specific event programming beyond standard operations is not confirmed in available resort information. Since Vail Resorts' 2019 acquisition of Peak Resorts, Attitash has continued operating as part of the Epic Pass network, building on six decades of White Mountains skiing history dating to Phil Robertson's 1965 founding. The resort's dual-peak character remains central to its seasonal appeal.

    Getting to Attitash Mountain, and where to stay

    Attitash Mountain Resort sits near Bartlett in New Hampshire's White Mountains, with a base elevation of 600 feet and a summit at 2,350 feet over 311 acres spread across two connected peaks. This setting places the resort within one of New England's most storied ski regions.

    Bartlett and nearby North Conway offer extensive lodging, dining and shopping, including well-known tax-free outlet stores, within a short drive of the resort. The broader Mount Washington Valley region surrounds Attitash with additional outdoor recreation and White Mountains scenery.

    New Hampshire State Route 302 provides direct access to the resort through the heart of the White Mountains. Winter driving conditions on this route can include snow and ice, though the well-travelled state highway is regularly maintained given the resort's popularity as a Northeast ski destination. There is no direct public transport service to the mountain.

    Specific nearest commercial airport details are not confirmed in available resort information, though Attitash's White Mountains location keeps it within a reasonable drive of the greater Boston metropolitan area's major airports for visitors travelling from further afield.

    Sierra Nevada Halloween Storm: Dodge Ridge Forecast to Lead With 19 Inches

    Sierra Nevada Halloween Storm: Dodge Ridge Forecast to Lead With 19 Inches

    Halloween weekend brings a wet, windy storm to the Sierra Nevada. Our five-day forecast has Dodge Ridge on top with 19 in, followed by Bear Valley at 15 in and Mammoth Mountain at 12 in, with most of it landing on Saturday. A winter weather advisory covers the Tahoe Basin and Mono County until 7 AM Sunday, gusts could reach 47 mph and the freezing level swings between 4,900 and 8,700 ft, so some bases will see rain. A dry spell follows from Monday.

    Lake Louise Opens Early on 1 November With Juniper Express and Easy Street

    The Rockies get their first lift-served turns of the season early. Lake Louise opens Sunday 1 November, five days ahead of schedule, after a cold October and round-the-clock work from the snowmaking and mountain crews. Terrain is limited to Juniper Express Chair and Easy Street, with two small terrain parks and the beginner area for lessons. Opening-day tickets are over 60% off, with prices rising as more lifts open. First chair is at 9:30 am under the resort’s new lift hours.

    Kitzbüheler Horn Summit Cable Car to Be Replaced After 70 Years

    Kitzbüheler Horn Summit Cable Car to Be Replaced After 70 Years

    A Tyrolean summit lift that has been carrying guests up the Kitzbüheler Horn since 1955 is on borrowed time. Its licence runs to 2045, but a new inspection rule has made refurbishment uneconomic, so Bergbahn AG Kitzbühel will spend around €15 million on a replacement on the same line. It should hold roughly 100 people and keep running in winds that would stop today’s lift. Building starts in autumn 2027, which makes this winter and next summer the last chances to ride the old one.

    Wolf Creek Opens on Halloween Weekend as Colorado’s Early Season Gathers Pace

    Colorado’s early-season dominoes keep falling. Arapahoe Basin opened on Wednesday, Keystone follows on Friday, and now Wolf Creek is joining in on Saturday 31 October, just in time for Halloween. A storm on 23 and 24 October left 20 inches of natural snow in the San Juans, and three lifts will turn from 9:00 am, covering about 30% of the mountain. Expect rocks, unmarked obstacles and open water, but also Local Appreciation lift tickets at $73 for adults.

    Keystone Resort Opens for 2026/27 With More Than Two Miles of Skiing

    Keystone is next. After Arapahoe Basin claimed the first chairlift skiing of the season on Wednesday, Keystone opens on Friday 30 October at 9:00 am with more than two miles of snowmaking-built terrain on Schoolmarm and Silver Spoon, plus free donuts, coffee and a live DJ. Last year the order was reversed, when Keystone squeezed in a three-hour afternoon session to beat A-Basin by a day. Snowmaking has been running since 15 October.

    Beaver Creek Installs 16 Automated Snow Guns on Birds of Prey Ahead of Record World Cup

    Beaver Creek is getting ready for the biggest Birds of Prey ever, and this time it is not leaving the snow to chance. Crews started making snow on 27 October with 16 newly installed automated guns on the lower third of the course, after last December’s warm spell forced a downhill off the schedule. Seven races across two weekends run from 3 to 13 December, the most the course has hosted since its 1997 debut, and the guns start themselves whenever the weather allows.
