Blue Hills now has a state of the art snowmaking system, improved night lighting system and upgraded lift system. A certified staff of ski and snowboard instructors and a new rental fleet of 1,000 skis and snowboards makes Blue Hills a great place to learn for skiers and snowboarders of all ages. With eight trails on 60 skiable acres, Blue Hills has five lifts, including a double chairlift, a Magic Carpet and Carrousel.
