Resorts Waterville-Valley
Area Profile
Waterville Valley has long been a popular destination for Bean Town skiers and riders (they're celebrating their 40th season this year), and former owner Tom Corcoran played host to many a Bostonian, including the Kennedy clan. Since its acquisition by Booth Creek Resorts, Waterville has received many upgrades. Its village core is one of the first in the East and the mountain's 2,000-foot vertical drop is exceptionally appealing. Waterville consistently hosts major international races, including many memorable World Cups. Kids did well with the addition of a new smaller terrain park, and an all-access daily lift ticket that lets kids try out snow tubes, ski bikes, snowscoots, ski foxes, and snow blades in the Exhibition Park. Recent upgrades included "Old T Trees" - 4.5 acres of new, intermediate gladed runs - daily trails maps with the most up-to-date information on conditions and activities, and a new Camoplast snow groomer.
