Mount Tom State Reservation Official WebsiteMount Tom was a ski resort that operated from 1960 to 1998. It had 15 trails, four chairlifts, and a beginner surface lift, and covered 28 acres of land with snowmaking. The slopes were gentle, with a vertical drop of 680 feet. The ski resort closed and the site became a state reservation park. Today, the remains of the ski area are covered with graffiti and vegetation, and offer a glimpse into the past of skiing in Massachusetts.
