| Ragged was on its way to becoming a forgotten ski area
until its current owners responded to a 1986 newspaper ad for "a large
parcel of land for sale in New Hampshire." When they first saw
Ragged, it had no working lifts and its one base lodge was in need of major
renovations. But they also saw a site that had tremendous potential with several
undeveloped peaks, expansive bowls, an unlimited water supply for snowmaking,
and a prime New Hampshire location just under two hours from Boston.
Today, Ragged Mountain offers the most affordable big
mountain skiing and snowboarding experiences in New England with 200
+ acres of trails, 98% state-of-the-art snowmaking coverage, nine lifts including
New Hamphsire only high speed six-pack, and two New England colonial-style lodges
that provide all the amenities a family could need. Ragged Mountain is a great
place to learn to ski or snowboard, and the Ski School offers programs for all
ages and ability levels. Services include ski rentals, ski shop, cafeteria,
mid-mountain lodge and lounge.
Ragged Mountain Ski Area is located approximately
56 miles northwest of Manchester, N.H., and may be easily accessed via I-89
or I-93. |
