Blue Hills   Blue Hills is a family friendly mountain with world class instruction.  Two former instructors have won Olympic medals and one of the current instructors has life time certification at the highest level.  (There are very few in the U.S. at this level. My grandchildren look forward to their lessons each week and they love the beautiful view of Boston from the top of Big Blue. It's great to see the lights of Boston in the distance at night! Says Doug Forbes.     Hey, I would like to know if you can use a SNOESKATE at This ski area in Braintree MA? Says MIKE. The seasonal snowfall is lower than average at this ski area. This ski resort has a small collection of ski slopes and enough good ski lifts to serve them all. Blue Hills is a more inviting than average ski resort with a pretty cozy elevation difference compared to other east coast ski areas. Every winter season this ski mountain gets 5 feet of white snow, and that is unsurprisingly not outstanding, but not that bad either. No other ski area for 55 miles has a more sky-scraping elevation difference. This ski area is a cozy place managed by caring people. This ski area has a much lower   than average share of tough trails and a much higher than average part of blue and green ski slopes. The skiable territory being 60 acres, it's enormously amiable and relaxed. All of the 5 ski lifts are amusing to take a ride with. The 8 ski slopes at this ski hill are amusing to ski on. With a 309 foot vertical drop it's not the highest hill there is, but all the other glorious features of Blue Hills make up for it. There are good comfortable places to stay here, but if you don’t have reservations, you may perhaps end up snoozing in your car. Skiing and snowboarding in this part of the country is a glorious thing to do through the winter season. Massachusetts gets extremely beautiful in wintertime; it is so beautiful for snowboarding or skiing. This is a family friendly ski area with lots of beginner and intermediate ski runs. Some folks prefer skiing and some snowboarding, either way, this vicinity has many ski areas. Please refer to the trailmap of Blue Hills on this page for information. Getting your skiing muscles activated and an opportunity to spend some time in the outdoors are magnificent causes to come.          Hotels Near Blue Hills ski area, Massachusetts Hilton Boston-Dedham, Dedham 3.6 miles away Comfort Inn Randolph - Boston, Randolph 3.9 miles away Fairfield Inn Boston Dedham, Dedham 4.1 miles away Residence Inn Boston Dedham, Dedham 4.1 miles away Hampton Inn Boston-Norwood, Norwood 4.4 miles away Holiday Inn BOSTON-DEDHAM HTL & CONF CTR, Dedham 4.5 miles away Hampton Inn - Suites Boston-Stoughton MA, Stoughton 4.6 miles away Courtyard Boston Stoughton, Stoughton 4.9 miles away Courtyard Boston Norwood/Canton, Norwood 5.4 miles away Four Points By Sheraton Norwood, Norwood 5.5 miles away Candlewood Suites BOSTON-BRAINTREE, Braintree 5.7 miles away Beantown Inn, Braintree 5.7 miles away Hampton Inn Boston-Braintree, Braintree 5.8 miles away Residence Inn Boston Braintree, Braintree 5.8 miles away EnVision Hotel Boston-Longwood, An Ascend Hotel Collection Member, Boston 5.8 miles away * Distances listed are direct linear distances, actual travel distance may be different.   Trailmap Bigger Trailmap Pictures of Blue Hills ski area Bigger Picture Stats Detailed Stats Contact Info Phone, Email, Address, GPS coordinates Weather Local weather forecast These outdoors activities are available near Blue Hills ski area.   Ski Areas Near Blue Hills ski area: Bradford, Massachusetts , 27 miles away    300 foot drop, 8 lifts, 13 runs    40% Expert & Adv.    35% Intermediate    25% Beginner Yawgoo Valley, Rhode Island , 46 miles away    245 foot drop, 4 lifts, 12 runs    30% Expert & Adv.    40% Intermediate    30% Beginner McIntyre, New Hampshire , 46 miles away    300 foot drop, 5 lifts, 11 runs    20% Expert & Adv.    10% Intermediate    70% Beginner Wachusett Mountain, Massachusetts , 55 miles away    1000 foot drop, 6 lifts, 20 runs    30% Expert & Adv.    40% Intermediate    30% Beginner Crotched Mountain, New Hampshire , 66 miles away    875 foot drop, 5 lifts, 23 runs    22% Expert & Adv.    50% Intermediate    28% Beginner Pats Peak, New Hampshire , 67 miles away    710 foot drop, 8 lifts, 21 runs    32% Expert & Adv.    30% Intermediate    38% Beginner Pine Ridge, Massachusetts , 69 miles away    200 foot drop, 1 lifts, 8 runs    0% Expert & Adv.    0% Intermediate    100% Beginner Gunstock, New Hampshire , 70 miles away    1400 foot drop, 8 lifts, 45 runs    25% Expert & Adv.    70% Intermediate    5% Beginner Abenaki, New Hampshire , 72 miles away    100 foot drop, 2 lifts, 6 runs    33% Expert & Adv.    33% Intermediate    34% Beginner Ragged Mountain, New Hampshire , 82 miles away    1250 foot drop, 5 lifts, 45 runs    30% Expert & Adv.    40% Intermediate    30% Beginner   Whitewater Near Blue Hills ski area: Charles River, Norfolk County , 10 miles away, Class I - 0.1 miles long (Needham Rapids) Cohasset Tidal Rip, Norfolk County , 23 miles away, Class I-II - 0 miles long (Cohasset) Concord River, Middlesex County , 24 miles away, Class III+(IV) - 1.5 miles long (Close to Lowell)   National Parks Near Blue Hills ski area: Boston Harbor Islands National Recreation Area, Boston - MA , 9 miles away Blackstone River Valley National Heritage Corridor, Woonsocket - RI , 29 miles away   Golf Courses Near Blue Hills ski area: Ponkapoag Golf Course, Canton , 1 miles away Wampatuck Country Club, Canton , 3 miles away George Wright Golf Club, Hyde Park , 3 miles away
