About the Ski Resort
The owners came to Willard Mountain a few years ago because Willard had an enviable reputation as a family-owned and family-managed ski area. And that is the kind of ski area they had been associated with and the kind they had wanted to build their future on. Their decision has certainly been confirmed. Patrons and staff have welcomed and given them heart-felt support. There are improvements being made continually. For example, Willard Mountain is pleased to be able to use an organic additive in the snowmaking that naturally biodegrades.
