The Berkshires bring out the best in us.

Est. 1979

The recognition we earn as a ski resort is based on many elements. Snowmaking.

Lodging. Lessons. Service. But it’s also based on how we create and use energy. Ski resorts depend on the environment, and that’s why we respect it so deeply. The proof is in our practices and the fact that we are now 100% powered by renewable energy.

• The Zephyr Wind turbine atop our summit.

• Commitment to community solar.

• Conservation achieved with top-to-bottom energy efficiency.

• Repurposing energy through recycling and cogeneration.

• Sustainable Slopes principles for erosion control and protection of riparian zones.

The Berkshires are a home and playground for many people.

That’s why they bring out the best in us.
