Bolton Backcountry
The Bolton Backcountry is not a CTA/Chapter managed area. It is an independent area managed and maintained by the Friends Of Bolton Valley Nordic & Backcountry, and Bolton Valley Resort.
Bolton Valley’s premiere backcountry terrain lies on the leeward faces of its highest ridges, providing a northeast-facing snow-accumulating zone that sits 2000 feet above the Champlain Valley floor and keeps snow shaded, light, and fluffy throughout the winter season. The accessible terrain ranges from mellow stands of old-growth white and yellow birch and maple trees to steep wooded glades to narrow little couloirs and cliff zones that challenge even the most advanced skiers and riders.
