The History and Story of West Mountain Ski Area
West Mountain has been bringing people together since 1961. Built at the foot of the Adirondacks, it started with just one chairlift and a few trails. Over time, it grew into a full ski and outdoor activity center, welcoming generations for winter sports, summer camps, and events. When the Montgomery family bought the area in 2013, they gave West Mountain a fresh start—investing millions to update lifts, trails, night lights, and summer offerings. Today, it’s a safe, welcoming space where beginners and lifelong adventurers alike can make memories and live an active lifestyle.
