A New Hampshire ski area is offering free lift tickets all season long
Skiers and riders at Storrs Hill Ski Area in Lebanon, N.H. can ski for free all season long.
The ski area, which opened in 1923 and is run by the nonprofit Lebanon Outing Club, is offering free lift tickets during the 2024-25 season thanks to a gift from the Jack and Dorothy Byrne Foundation.
“This project embodies the spirit of our community, providing an opportunity for everyone to enjoy the outdoors and experience the magic of winter sports,” said Cory Grant, hill manager and president of the Lebanon Outing Club, in a statement. “We hope this initiative brings neighbors together and inspires a love of skiing in a fun and accessible way.”

The ski area, which sees about 5,000 visitors annually, has 20 skiable acres, a vertical drop of 300 feet, seven trails, one lift, two ski jumps, a terrain park, instructional programs, a lodge, and night skiing. Skiers have been hitting the slopes there at night since 1939.
The donation could result in free skiing during subsequent seasons as well, according to the ski area.
Storrs Hill Ski Area is open Fridays from 5 to 9 p.m., Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Skiers do not need to make a reservation but should note that rental equipment is not available. Those interested can view a trail map.

Another New Hampshire ski area helping skiers financially this season is King Pine Ski Area in Madison, N.H, where skiers can hit the slopes for $4 on Dec. 19 in celebration of its Founders Day.
