Great skiing today at Wildcat. Well groomed and good cover in most places. A little icy in others. Much better than Cranmore which I was at yesterday. Internet lift ticket purchased last night was cheap. Amenities are all open. Just a couple of lifts running. I think they could run lifts until 4 pm but be aware that they actually shut down at 3.30 pm.

Awesome views everywhere you look while skiing down the moutian! Right across from mt. Washington. The hold events all the time and their web sight is very user friendly. The conditions were great. And is also good for all ages. Staff were friendly. 1 pass 2 mountains!

The Cat is awesome. And not closed, never was. Intermediate plus terrain. Not a groomer mountain. Challenging. Much left ungroomed. A skiers mountain. Cons: can bebitter cold and windy , not a lot in the way of creature comforts. *2021 update. Vail Resorts is killing this place. Can t seem to run all the lifts. Crowds and long lines. Covid related for sure but what a shame.

Wildcat was a blast, there's a majority of blues and blacks which was perfect. Long runs, wide trails, fast trips back up. Only downside is the sun comes up from the other side of the mountain so in the morning the trails are in shadows.

Would recommend compared to the other options in the area.

Tried Wildcat for the first time this year since I got an Epic Pass. I have been 3 times since the start of my snowboarding season in Jan and I have completely fallen in love with the mountain.

It has a fast lift that takes you to the top of the mountain which allows access to any of the trails. The winds can be an issue but I haven't experienced any wind holds yet. The trails are fun and classic New England being narrow and windy. They haven't gotten to much snow but all the trails were all groomed. I even found some corduroy towards the end of the day on most of the main trails.

There are no parks, and the base lodge is simple, but beautiful. When you go there it is definitely to enjoy the mountain and less about the event that take place off the slopes. Top of the lift is flat so if you are a snowboarder expect to keep one of your bindings off until you reach the top of the run.

We took the gondolas to the top of the mountain and had lunch we had brought with some incredibly gorgeous views. The kids loved the ride is and down and there's a small area to hike around at the top but lots of activities like hiking, disc golf and a zip line at the bottom. About a 25 minute ride from downtown North Conway.

$11 ticket online special for April fool's day and no joke. Conditions were challenging because of recent rain but grooming was reasonable considering. Wind gusting over 40 but summit lift still running. Nice lodge and restaurant. View across Pinkham Notch to Mt Washington best in New England. Elevation over 4000 ft with 2100 vertical, long runs.

I'm afraid of heights but I did the ziplining (which you sit down and are stapped in 5 different ways) ended up going a second time and all the workers there are so friendly. Pretty decent food too. They do allow dogs and it was a nice view on top the 1750' mountain but there was nothing else to do.

The skiing was ok, it was lightly misting when we got there, but since we had driven all the way up there for some skiing, we got some tickets. But then a unexpected thunderstorm rolled through and they closed all the lifts down after a couple hours of skiing. I was wanting to transfer my ticket to some other day, since they closed down the lifts & the conditions weren't great all day, even though their now report said that it was supposed to be snowing that day (even after it started raining). They said there was no way for me to get the ticket transferred due to the closure of all of the lifts early & pretty wet conditions all day.
