Cranmore

Cranmore presents as a more modest, family-friendly incline, well-suited for those who value steady progression over extreme pitches. Its character suggests a comfortable day on the snow, without an overwhelming scale or particularly fierce features.

For the touring skier, Cranmore pairs well with its nearer brethren in New Hampshire. A short jaunt of a mere six miles places Attitash within easy reach, while Wildcat, at triple that distance, offers a different flavor of mountain without undue travel.

Given its inclusion on the Ikon Pass, Cranmore offers a means to visit without purchasing a separate ticket, a convenience not to be overlooked when charting one's path through the eastern ranges.
