Opening Day!
We are pleased to announce that the 2025–2026 ski and ride season will open on Friday, November 28th, as scheduled. Our team is excited to welcome guests back to the mountain and begin another winter at Smugglers’ Notch.
On opening day, skiing and riding will be available on Sterling Mountain at normal operating hours (8:30 am – 4:00 pm). There will be advanced skiing and riding only, as no beginner terrain will be open. As always, please be sure to check our Snow Report, which will have the most up-to-date status on lifts and trails.
