If you’re coming up to Carrabassett Valley and like to mountain bike you need to check out the trails in the area.

It’s guys like these who make us proud to call Sugarloaf home! (re-posted from Jan. 2011)

Powder magazine is what you look to for the most thrilling images to feed a skier/snowboarder’s dreams! So how did these three guys who have been skiing Sugarloaf for 50+ years manage to get a major story in the December issue? It’s all about attitude! Non-pretentious, serious skiing is what Sugarloaf, the Mountain, has always been about. Ostentatious, dry humor is what ‘Sugarloaf’ has always been about! Early Mtn. Manager John Christie, “Captain America” Peter Roy, & First in Line Don Fowler share some laughs on WSKI’s Evening show January 14.

They don’t call them the Snowfields for nothing…

April 14, 2016 by WSKI Leave a Comment

One of the truly unique, if not THE most outstanding feature of skiing (& riding) at Sugarloaf, is the chance to ski above the tree-line with lift service! Every season is different, & some are better than others, but for those of us who live here, any day at the summit of Sugarloaf is better than any pay-check from an office where we wouldn’t be able to be here on those magical days!! I remember shooting this video like it was yesterday, tho it was actually 1984… when WSKI was part of the Marketing Dept. before we went independent as SNOWFIELDS Productions in 1986!!

April 10, 2016 by WSKI Leave a Comment

Here’s the Mtn’s Content Manager (& Snow Reporter) extraordinaire Jamie Walter sharing all the info to Know Before You Go for the 28th Annual Bud Light Reggae Fest that kicks off Thursday. With a perfect forecast, the snow holding tight on the hill, & spring fever pent up from the chilly temps the past couple of weeks, is there a better way to celebrate the official ‘Commemoration of Spring Event’ at the Mtn. that rules the Season!??! Footnote; Jamie’s photographs of an incredible display of Northern Lights over Flagstaff Lake & from the Mtn. blew Sugarloaf’s FB numbers off the charts last fall: a rare gift for us who live here to experience, even more rare for someome w/ Jamie’s talent to capture it to share with all.. Mother Nature’s most breath-taking beauty in our book!!
