Ski Butternut   Butternut is a good place to go. They are also nice to nice to family Says James. Best little mountain in the world. I would rather have a nice day at butternut that a weekend at killington Says Maryann. Butternut is allright with me. I like it, it's good. Says Jason. This ski resort is very poor in maintaining equipment and having enough equipment for rent. I showed up 1.5 hr after opening, and they were already out of adult skis and     had very limited children skis left. Also, the lodges were very crowded, and the snack bars ran out of food. It is not very accommodating for any amount of a crowd. Says Kenneth Merritt Jr. Sun, 16 Jan 2011. Ski Butternut has a rather small mixture of runs and an ok number of lifts. The annual snowfall is approximately average at Ski Butternut. The 1,000 feet of height difference is quite acceptable; Ski Butternut makes excellent use of it. This ski mountain has a much lower than average fraction of red and black ski slopes and a much higher than average proportion of green and blue runs. There's 110 acres of skiable terrain, and it's all covered by wonderful snow. This is a   more inviting than average ski resort having a roughly average drop when you compare it to other ski mountains in the region. A little exercise and getting out of the house for a while will make you glad you came. The ski run map of Ski Butternut on this page of course says a thousand words. No other ski mountain for 48 miles has a more towering altitude difference. This is a great spot for young and old with scores of easy slopes for learners. The incredible annual snowfall of 10 feet is one of the reasons this is such a splendid ski resort. This ski resort has 10 ski lifts, and they are skillfully taken care of and run by kind people. The 22 ski trails at this ski mountain are totally enjoyable. The skiing and the snowboarding in Massachusetts is a good thing to do the whole ski season.
