Whaleback Mountain

News

Use this page for updates that change over time: announcements, mountain news, and operational notes that should not be buried in evergreen pages.

What belongs here

Whaleback’s live news section mixes media coverage, community letters, and mountain updates. That is the right instinct. News should carry the dated, time-sensitive material that would otherwise clutter the evergreen pages.

Notable coverage and public items currently highlighted on the live site

The current public news page highlights stories such as:

  • NH Chronicle: Inner City Kids Learn to Ski at Whaleback
  • “Mountains Not for Profit” by TGR and Indy Pass
  • New England Ski Journal: how Whaleback keeps moving its small, independent New Hampshire mountain forward
  • recognition as one of New England’s best mom-and-pop ski areas

Important recent update to keep visible

Whaleback also published a March 2025 community letter explaining the chairlift problem, the immediate repair need, and the effort to raise money while sustaining off-season operations.

Good housekeeping for this page

Every news item should carry a date, a clear title, and a clean archive path. If the update still needs to be true six months from now, it probably belongs on another page.
