Mad River Glen

Established in 1947, Mad River Glen stands proudly as one of America's most distinctive ski areas. This iconic Vermont mountain preserves the pure essence of skiing with its famous single chairlift, natural snow conditions, and commitment to an authentic alpine experience. Our motto "Ski It If You Can" isn't just a challenge – it's a testament to our unique terrain and dedication to keeping skiing wild.

Mad River Glen's legendary Single Chair lift, installed in 1948 and thoughtfully restored in 2007, represents our dedication to skiing heritage. Our deliberately minimal lift network, including two double chairs and the Callie's Corner handle tow, maintains uncrowded slopes and pristine ski conditions. This approach preserves the intimate skiing experience that has defined Mad River Glen for generations.
