Mountain Meisters

Mountain Meisters is the longest-running winter race league in the U.S., bringing local skiers and snowboarders together for 53 years. Teams compete, but the real reward is being part of a tradition passed down through generations. Being a Meister is part of being a local.

Cranmore hosts Meisters every Wednesday for ten weeks. Participants get all-day lift access on Wednesdays, plus non-holiday Saturdays from 2–8 PM, and two tickets to Meister Clinics on Tuesdays throughout the season.

Early Season Clinics in December help racers get ready and start the season strong.

Each week, Meisters can donate $5 at the start shack for a third run as part of the Pay2Play Program, with all proceeds benefiting a local charity. Non-profits interested in being considered as a beneficiary can apply between July 1 and October 15. Participation is not guaranteed, and selections will be finalized by October 15.
