Join us on Friday, December 6th, between 5–8 PM for our "Searching for Vermont's Lost Ski Areas, Part 2" Exhibit Opening Party! This expanded exhibit highlights areas from Route 4 north to the Canadian border and features an additional 113 documented areas not included in Part 1. Photographs, maps, interviews, newspaper clippings, equipment, and memorabilia from the Museum's collection showcase the extraordinary number of ski areas that once dotted Vermont's hills and mountains. To date, we've identified 185 areas that once operated a mechanical tow, including four that were planned but never opened.

For those who missed last season's popular Part 1, it has been incorporated into the new exhibit. All areas are identified on an eight-foot-tall map, including 20 ski areas that are still operating today.

A few of the lost areas highlighted in the exhibit include four in Waterbury, five in Stowe, and one located just off Interstate 89's eastbound Route 2 exit in South Burlington.

Admission is free and everyone is welcome! As we work to meet our year-end fundraising goal, donations are always appreciated!

"Searching for Vermont's Lost Ski Areas, Part 2" is made possible thanks to the efforts of many volunteers, and with the support of Union Bank, Darn Tough, the Winthrop H. Smith Jr. Charitable Foundation, and Jeremy Davis of the New England Lost Ski Areas Project.
