3 reviews for Cranmore Mountain Resort
Okay, my roommate is a ski instructor here, so of course I'm going to give the ski school a great writeup. In all honesty, my friend put her hellion through the ski school, and he actually came back to us at lunchtime with a great report. The instructor said he didn't cry once, or even attempt to throw a snowball. That's a record.
The mountain itself is pretty small, but I have to say they have a lot to offer on their few trails. Just watch yourself on the green circle on the backside of the mountain. It's seriously like a double green circle, running almost flat in some places. And it's almost impossible to make a turn because there are so many beginners, and in the spring the middle of the trail turns into a swimming pool. So don't fall.
Other than that it's a pretty good mountain with some wide trails as well as some narrow trails through the woods. Good New Hampshire mountain.

Great trail to be on and having fun and getting alot of excersise and checking out the wholw entire mountain and taking picutres as well and enjoying if it gets to be very good weather.
Having my flight to MHT cancelled because of herendous weather at MDW was a real pisser, but having to pull an allnighter in BWI was far worse. I wondered if my snowboard would make it to MHT when I do and contemplating if I even wanted to ride later that day after the adventure I had just experienced with a few hundred miles still to go.
The sun began to rise as the plane landed in MHT, I groggily meandered through the terminal to baggage claim to be pleasantly surprised to find my boardbag there and the idea of getting a half day of riding in filled my hopes... To North Conway we went!!!
$44 for a half day isn't baaaaaad, but for the size of the mountain, I was a little disappointed at the cost for 5 operating lifts and a closed park.
2' of fresh POW dropping in the past 24 hours and storming so bad that they didn't have an opportunity to groom any of the runs more than made up for what they were raping my pocket for! There isn't a lot of 'off-trail' spots to ride through, which is a bummer for a powder seeker, but as I said, there was more than enough powder everywhere for me to plow through!
They also offer night riding Saturday nights, something I didn't experience, but the resort seem to be worth checking out sometime!
