Powder Ridge ski area, Connecticut

  Powder Ridge is closed for season due to pending sale. says jm.

Having 88 acres of skiable area, it's more of a cozy style ski area. Powder Ridge has the biggest drop for 25 miles. The 500 foot drop from top to bottom is of course not that much to talk about, but all the other pleasant properties of Powder Ridge compensate for it. Powder Ridge has a much lower than average fraction of advanced and expert runs and a much higher than average percentage of intermediate or beginner trails. All the 19 ski slopes
    here are totally fun. The 5 feet of ice cold snow that fall here per season is pretty reasonable for a ski mountain such as this one. This is a small ski hill featuring a relaxed drop if compared to other east coast ski resorts. Powder Ridge has a moderate set
of trails and an acceptable quantity of ski lifts. The seasonal snowfall is lower than average at this ski hill. No deficiency of great hotels, and if you make reservations before heading out, you're all set. The wintertime months in Connecticut is the most splendid time of the year for skiing and snowboarding.

on the slopes for a while have snow skiers coming here. The trailmap on this net page will give you a good idea what Powder Ridge is like.
