NY Outdoor Adventurers

Stratton has 97 trails over 670 acres (270 ha) of skiable terrain, 93% of which has snowmaking. 42% of the trails are rated as easy, 31% are intermediate, and 27% are advanced. There are eleven lifts, which can transport 33,528 people an hour. The mountain's base is at 1,872 ft (571 m) and the summit is at 3,875 ft (1,181 m) for a vertical drop of 2,003 ft (611 m). Stratton has an average annual snowfall of 180 inches (460 cm). Stratton also ranks in the top 10 (SKI Magazine) for snow, grooming, lifts, terrain parks, service, lodging, dining, on-mountain food, apres and nightlife. Stratton has replaced the Summit Gondola cabins and cable for the 2014/2015. The new cabins will fit twelve people, an upgrade from the current eight, and travel faster due to improved aerodynamics of the cabins. As well, the cabins will feature upholstered seating, which will replace the plastic seating of the old cabins. The cabins will also sit farther away from the towers, making the gondola able run at wind speeds above the current 25 m.p.h. limit. Stratton also plans to replace the Snow Bowl lift with a High Speed Quad Lift for the 2015/2016 season. The aging base lodge will also be renovated in the near future.
