What can make a diehard skier happier than an impending dump of snow? Saving a little green to get onto the white. This season, the UNH ski team is teaming up with Ski NH to offer a lot of skiing at a great value, with proceeds benefitting the Wildcat skiers.

In partnership with Ski NH, the UNH skiing program is offering a special reduced rate on a 64-ticket booklet to all alpine and Nordic ski areas in New Hampshire, from mega-mountains like Loon and Bretton Woods to Granite State classics like Cannon and Cranmore to family favorites Black Mountain, King Pine, and McIntyre. Cross-country ski areas around the state, from Windblown at the Massachusetts border to Jackson XC near Pinkham Notch, are included.

The booklets, valued at $2,178, are being sold for $1,400 apiece; each booklet contains two tickets to every ski area in the state. Past sales of these ticket books have brought up to $20,000 per year to the UNH Nordic and alpine ski teams.

“The proceeds are an important part of our budget and help us provide racing opportunities to the team,” says Nordic skiing head coach Cory Schwartz.

To purchase a booklet, contact Cory Schwartz or 603-512-2317 or alpine head coach Brian Blank or 603-969-4424.

Don't forget about the annual ski sale on October 28!
