"Mount Washington's snowpack can average up to 55 feet in a typical winter, making it a prime destination for skiers and snowboarders seeking late-season turns."
"Airplane Gully delivers about 1,000 vertical feet of high-quality spring skiing, with a sustained pitch of around 40 degrees before opening up into wide, swooping turns below."
"The terrain north and east of the summit offers a wide range of skiing from moderate ravines to gnarly rock-walled chutes, providing diverse options for adventurous skiers."
Mount Washington, the highest peak in New England at 6,288 feet, retains snow long after other ski resorts close. Tuckerman Ravine is the most popular skiing area, but other routes exist, including those along the Mt. Washington Auto Road. As the road opens in mid-spring, alternative skiing options become available. Airplane Gully provides 1,000 vertical feet of skiing with a 40-degree pitch. The mountain offers some of the best spring skiing on the East Coast for those willing to explore its terrain.
