Editorial Review for Wilmot Mountain – by Citysearch Editors
The Scene
It's not a ski area's height or the length of its slopes that matter most; it's how thrilling the ride down is, even if it lasts only a minute or two. Tiny Wilmot Mountain earns points in this category. Its short-but-sweet steeps have retained a loyal customer base since the ski area opened way back in 1938.
The Slopes
Wilmot isn't high on scenery (the hill is mostly man-made), but it's surprisingly wide on terrain. Nearly 70 percent of its 25 runs are designated as more or most difficult. Eight chairs and five rope tows combine for an uphill capacity of more than 12,000 skiers per hour. Though not as big as Alpine Valley Resort up the road, Wilmot does ski bigger than its 230-foot vertical drop implies. Beginners and intermediates usually play to skier's right, where runs like Broadway, Meadow and Fanny Hill descend more gently. Also tucked among the runs is a snowboarding half-pipe.
