Loon Mountain Resort Opens with Over 1,700 Vertical Feet of Skiing
Most Open Terrain in New Hampshire
Lincoln, NH (November 22, 2023) Loon Mountain Resort kicked off their 58th winter season with 38 acres of top-to-bottom skiing and riding on Loon Peak, following a fresh snowfall of 5 inches overnight. The White Mountain Express Gondola began loading guests at 9:00AM providing access to 7 trails and 1,738 vertical feet of terrain—the most open in New Hampshire.
Top-to-Bottom Snowmaking
Fully automated and semi-automated snowmaking systems enabled Loon to capitalize during each cold weather window this month. During peak periods, the team at Loon had over 300 snow guns running simultaneously, ensuring top-to-bottom accessibility for Opening Day.
Welcome to Timbertown
Loon will reach a major milestone this winter with the South Peak Expansion project. Eleven new trails and a four-place chairlift will increase the resort’s skiable terrain to over 400 acres, 13 lifts and a vertical drop of 2,190 feet. Servicing the new terrain will be the Timbertown Quad. Conveniently located one-half mile from Main Street and a mile more from Interstate 93, the lift will transport guests 486 feet to access current South Peak trails as well as the new terrain in approximately 6 minutes.
