Otis Ridge

MLk day

3" of new wet snow

sunny high 30's

On my never ending quest to ski new areas, I found my self driving across the Mass boarder to the town of Otis and the ski area. I have been by this ski area countless times in the summer and finally made it up for some turns. Conditions were great with 3 “ of fresh wet snow, the area is very small with a double chair, t-bar and wire rope tow, servicing about 8 or so runs ( all open) a good about of people were there but most of them in the lodge or watching their kids take lessons anyways I had a great time here are a few pictures: knox slope, main slope, village of Otis from the top.

Wait till Otis sees us, He loves us!

Great little area. I rented a place one summer in Otis, right down the road from the ridge. Nice pics!

I learned to ski there. Back in high school a night lift ticket and rentals were $25.

I skied there twice 2 years ago, and a night lift ticket was only $10 each time (once on a Sunday, once on a Tuesday). The weird thing is that they close from 4-5 each day. A lift attendant there told me that the green trail, which works its way around the perimeter of the mountain, is 1 mile long.

They probably close to groom.
