Bradford Ski Area, Haverhill MA | |
Close to Boston? After Blue Hills and before Wachusett Mountain, that would be Bradford Ski Area inland from the North Shore. | ||

Bradford Ski Area, northwest of Boston near the New Hampshire state line in Haverhill MA (map), is small, with just 48 skiable acres, but therein are 13 trails, over half of them classed as Expert—well, easy Expert—(along with 17% Beginner and 33% Intermediate). Eight lifts serve the trails: three triple chairs, three rope tows, and two T-bars. Snowmaking covers 100% of the slopes. Ski lessons are available for all ages and abilities, rental equipment is waiting for you, and the large base lodge has a snack bar and ample parking. All this only 37 miles (60 km)—less than an hour's drive—north of the center of Boston. Ski Bradford —by Tom Brosnahan
