Last April we invited dozens of ski testers as well as 14 brands to join us at Stowe Mountain Resort to take part in the 1st Annual SkiEssentials.com Ski Test. Despite battling less than ideal weather, we still managed to collect an incredible amount of data for over 120 different 2018 skis. At this point, you've probably already seen our 2018 Ski Test (if you haven't, you should check it out), and now we've decided to give you a glimpse of how it all went down. Take a look at our Behind the Scenes Recap of the 1st Annual SkiEssentials.com Ski Test!

This week, our Feed Hill Highlights series continues with our spotlight of Wachusett Mountain in Princeton, MA. Situated roughly an hour away from three sizable metropolises, this feeder hill is one of the closest ski areas to nearly 8 million urban dwelling skiers. Mix that fact with great terrain, a strong race scene, and a family friendly atmosphere and you'll quickly realize that Wachusett isn't just another East Coast feeder hill, it's prototypical of the term itself. Needless to say, we're extremely excited to present, "Feeder Hill Highlight: Wachusett." Enjoy!

A couple of weeks ago, SkiEssentials.com hosted our second annual premier of the latest Matchstick Productions movie. Just as in year one, the event took place at the historic Rusty Nail here in Stowe, VT, with proceeds benefiting our good friends at the High Five Foundation. We know that not all of you could be there and that you're probably feeling a bit left out, so don't worry! We've put together a recap of the event to let you experience what went down! Click through and enjoy!

For the second installment of our Feeder Hill Highlights series, we metaphorically travel to McCall, Idaho, the home of Little Ski Hill. Measuring just 405' vertical, what this ski area lacks in height it more than maks up for in heart and service to the community. Between a vibrant after school program, multiple contest series, and a multimedia club for aspiring photographers and cinematographers, Little Ski Hill is way more than just a place to go up and down a hill. Don't take our word for it though, read all about it right here!
