Foote Brooke Farm & Flower Walk

Our Working Farm

After the flood of 2023 we set out on a mission to create, educate and inspire! We needed hope and something to look forward to. On Sunday August 4th we will open the farm to visitors. Come walk along our gardens that lead into a sunflower maze that includes a colorful rock scavenger hunt for kids. Continue into our newly planted nut and berry orchard and wildflower loop to the Lamoille rivers edge. Trail is just over a mile long, you can meander as long as you like, stroll, picnic, or just take in all the green hills, flora and fauna. We can’t wait to show you what we’ve built.

Smugglers' Notch Resort

Many thanks Madonna 🙏

For decades the trusty Madonna I chairlift has transported skiers to the scenic high point of the resort. At the time it was built, Madonna had the highest vertical rise (over 2000 vertical feet) of any chairlift in the east. Madonna is beloved by many, but it is no secret that lift tech has changed since the 60’s.

The time has come for us to return to our roots as innovators in the chairlift space. We are excited to announce that this summer we will be breaking ground on Phase 1 of our latest Capital Project - removing all components of the M I lift.

While planning Phase 2, we looked at the modern lifts that some of our neighbors have recently installed - with features such as bubbles, 8 person capacities, and heated seats. We strongly considered going in this direction, but felt that a lift like this would detract from our “classic New England ski culture” vibe. Instead we decided to double down on that vibe…

Coming for the 25/26 ski season: The Madonna Rope Tow - the steepest and highest vertical rise rope tow in the east! (swipe to see what it will look like)

Don’t put away your skis and boards just yet!

We enjoyed a mix of snow and sunshine this past week and there’s a healthy helping of snow forecasted for the next 24 hours!

If there’s one thing you can count on when it comes to spring in Vermont…

it’s that there’s gonna be a little bit of winter mixed in. Four to five inches of fresh fluff fell last night and there’s more on the way over the next couples days!

Earlier this month the Smugglers’ Notch Adaptive Program (SNAP) Race Team attended the Special Olympics Vermont Winter Games at Haystack Mountain.

All nine SNAP athletes who attended medaled in their division (Slalom, Giant Slalom, and Super G)!

Congrats to the athletes and a big thanks to all of the coaches and parents that made this season possible!

A little bit of this, a little bit of that, a whole lot of fun

It was a beautiful weekend to be on the mountain whether you were working on your headstand, hitting gates at the Vertical Challenge, or just spending some quality time with your unicorn.

Hard to believe, but there are only a few weekends left of the season - Get out there and make the most of it!

The weekend is upon us!

Break out your best spring skiing outfit for some soft sunny turns on Saturday and then trade it out for your speed suit on Sunday for some FREE friendly racing at The Vertical Challenge!
