Easton Ski Area snow report
Easton Ski Area
Easton Ski Area is a small ski resort in Massachusetts that offers a fun and affordable skiing experience. The best trails can be found on the north side of the resort, with the "Birches" and "Maple" runs being particularly enjoyable. A little-known fact about the resort is that it was founded by a group of local businessmen in the 1960s and was originally called "Olde Ridge Ski Area." For beginners, the "Bunny Hill" slope is the perfect place to learn the basics of skiing. After a day on the slopes, the nearby "Burger Bar" is a great place to grab a bite to eat and relax with friends.
Terrain mix: The Easton Ski Area in Massachusetts is located in the vicinity of the Blue Hills Reservation, a small mountain range in eastern Massachusetts. The highest point in this range is Great Blue Hill, which stands at 635 feet (194 meters) above sea level. The ski area itself is situated on a section of the Blue Hills known as the Houghton's Pond area.
While not a traditional ski resort with large mountain ranges and expansive slopes, the Easton Ski Area offers a smaller and more intimate skiing experience for locals and visitors in the area. It is known for its beginner-friendly terrain and family-friendly atmosphere.

Mountain & avalanche safety
- Know before you go
- Check today's avalanche bulletin from the regional avalanche center before any off-piste / side-country / backcountry travel. Conditions can shift dramatically between morning and afternoon on storm days.
- Carry the gear, know how to use it
- Beacon, shovel, probe. Practice companion rescue on a calm day, not during a real burial.
- Mind the weather window
- Heavy snow + wind builds wind slabs at ridgelines. The day after a storm is often the riskiest in the backcountry, even if the resort itself is open.
- Respect closed terrain
- Ropes are there for a reason. Even in-bounds, ducking a closure can trigger a slide that catches you and others below.

About Easton Ski Area
Where does the snow data for Easton Ski Area come from?
Snowpack, SWE, 24-hour snowfall, and air temperature come from the nearest USDA NRCS SNOTEL station. Forecast comes from the National Weather Service / yr.no feed that Snoflo's iOS app uses.
How often is the snow report updated?
Snowpack and SNOTEL data are updated continuously by NRCS (typically hourly). The 15-day weather forecast is refreshed throughout the day. Snoflo caches and renders the most recent observation -- look for the "as of" timestamp on the snowpack hero.
What's the elevation at Easton Ski Area?
See the Resort Metrics panel above for base / summit / vertical drop. The summit elevation drives snowpack accumulation -- higher summits hold snow longer through spring.
How is "% of normal" calculated?
Today's snowpack is compared to the average snowpack on this calendar day across every recorded year at the nearest SNOTEL. 100% means right on average; 130% is a big year; 60% is thin.

Can I get alerts when fresh snow hits?
Yes -- snow alerts are managed in the Snoflo iOS app. Favorite this resort, set a snowfall threshold (e.g. "alert me when 6+ inches"), and you'll get a push the moment the SNOTEL crosses.
