Skiing at Mad RIver Glen

Mad River Glen became one of Vermont's first major ski areas when the Single Chair began carrying skiers to the top of General Stark Mountain in 1948. From the very beginning, Mad River Glen has been unique, a place where skiing is a sport not an industry, working with nature not against it. Mad River Glen began a new era in 1995 when its skiers came together to form the Mad River Glen Cooperative. In an age when the ski industry is becoming increasingly consolidated and homogenized, America's only skier-owned major mountain bucks the trend by remaining independent and preserving a brand of skiing that exists nowhere else. It's famous motto is "Ski it if you can".
