Crotched Mountain

Just 90 minutes from Boston in Bennington, NH, Crotched Mountain is the perfect place to chase first tracks down 1,000 feet of vertical or carve under the stars with the resort's signature 100% night skiing and riding. With the Rocket high speed quad and the legendary Midnight Madness sessions, Crotched stands alone as a mountain with nonstop energy and adventure. Its fully lit terrain makes evenings come alive, offering a fun, welcoming, and safe environment for after school laps, family outings, and anyone who believes the best days don't end when the sun goes down. There is truly no place on Earth quite like Crotched Mountain.

SnoCountry provides the updated snow reports, weather conditions, and mountain information you need for a great day on the snow at Crotched Mountain.
