Are you ready to hit the slopes?

Even though we haven't even made it Thanksgiving yet, before you know it, the 2021-2022 ski season will be underway in the state of Maine. In fact, the folks at Sunday River and Sugarloaf are already blowing snow, so it won't be long now. When you dig out the boots and poles for more exciting winter adventures on the trails, let us give the scheduled opening dates for Maine ski areas.

COVID-19 will still be a factor at various mountains, so before planning any trips, your best bet would be to check the website of your preferred destination so you aren't thrown for a loop, once you get there. The good news is that everything should be back to 100% full operations, as far as lifts and trails go.

And, if you are coming from away, check out these State of Maine travel protocols.
