It could be worse, however. You could be muskie fishing.

Skiing at Cranmore Mountain Resort is about getting outside, ripping up the slope, eating chili dogs and getting in as much vertical as you can. It's not about big dumps. And that's okay. This place is about honing your skills for that trip to Snowbird or Alaska. With only 1.0% of months at Cranmore Mountain Resort getting more than 90 inches of snow, this isn't the place to set up your powderhound shack.

Getting to Cranmore Mountain Resort, if you're flying in
