For the last couple years, we’ve been providing a free shuttle to take skiers to Highland Lodge so that they can enjoy a one-way point-to-point ski back to the Outdoor Center. The ~20k route also happens to be slightly net downhill in the Craftsbury direction, adding appeal to this beautiful ski.

Interest grew significantly last year, to the point where we were often taking as many as 3-4 van loads of skiers to HL on a weekend morning! It was great to see this enthusiasm, but the multiple trips were inefficient in terms of both staffing and van mileage.

So we are excited to announce that our shuttle service will be expanding this winter—into a bus! With a single bus trip, we will be able to bring as many skiers as we often carried last year.

With the new service will come a few changes. We will ask a fee of $5 for the shuttle to cover the cost of bus use. We will also make it possible for skiers to reserve a seat on the bus a day or two before the trip. This will enable skiers to plan ahead and be sure they have a seat. Advance reservations will require pre-payment.

To make a shuttle reservation, call the Center up to 2 days before the day you plan to ski – 802-586-7767. We will run the shuttle bus on both Saturday and Sunday, leaving the Outdoor Center at 9:30am. In the event of poor weather or trail conditions, we will not run the shuttle.
