Grooming
Northfield Mountain can take on the largest blizzard or the lightest dusting of snow with a fleet that includes two full-size snow cats and two heavy-duty snowmobiles. The trails receive regular grooming--usually in the early morning, with tracks set for classical skiing, and areas groomed flat for free-style or skating on skis.

Rental Equipment and Trail Fees
With more than 150 sets of skis including children's equipment, our ski shop can fit skiers of most any size. We offer mid-length waxless skis, equipped with easy-to-use Salomon Profil bindings. Adult sized skate ski rentals are also available. Daily trail fees range from $12 per day for adults, $9 per day for seniors (ages 55 - 69) and $5 per day for juniors (ages 8 - 14). Rental prices for skis, poles and boot packages range from $9 per day for children to $14 per day for adults. Combination packages that include rentals, trail fees and lessons are available. Snowshoes may be rented for $14 per day. For those with very young children, pulks may be rented for $5 per hour.

Lessons
Northfield Mountain's certified ski instructors offer weekend lessons—and weekday lessons by appointment, which emphasize fun, necessary skills, and safety. Participants may choose between beginner's group lessons, special technique clinics, or private instruction. Reservations are required. Phone: (800) 859-2960. Special programs at moderate prices are offered for school groups.

Snowshoeing
More than six miles of trails are reserved exclusively for snowshoeing. They meander through scenic sections of the mountain, with great views from Rose Ledges.
