Black Mountain

Review: Pros: Old School lifts and terrain (some of it quite hairy if you know where to look). CHEAP TICKETS (the most you will EVER pay at this mountain is $39). Least crowded hill in the valley. "The View" of Mt. Washington from the summit. Cons: Terrain could be more challenging overall, Triple chair constantly stopping for beginners. Stick to the summit double at all costs. A fresh coat of paint on the chairs would go a LONG way... Verdict: Best alternative area in the valley with a distinct old school flavor.
