Bradford Ski Area, also known as Ski Bradford, received 17 inches of snow during last weekend’s storm. Located on South Cross Road in Haverhill, began operations in 1949.
Of the 48 skiable acres with 13 trails many are considered expert in addition to intermediate and beginner trails. The ski area has night skiing and offers both private and group lessons.
