Ragged Mountain 60th Anniversary
Big News: Ragged turns 60!!!
Ragged Mountain first opened in January 1965 with a T-Bar lift and a Hall Double Chair. The first winter saw minimal snow and less-than-ideal conditions—one skier even described it as “Ragged,” with water pipes sticking out and non-functional plumbing. Since then, we’ve come a long way. From expanding terrain and adding Spear Peak to becoming the first mountain in New England with a high-speed 6-pack chairlift, Ragged has grown and evolved, and the future is looking brighter than ever.
Six decades of skiing, snowboarding, and unforgettable memories is a major milestone, especially for an independent mountain. Come celebrate with us the only way we know how: an epic birthday bash all weekend long, March 21-23! Mark your calendars – trust us, you won’t want to miss it!
