Jump Ahead
Similar to drop ahead, there is a sign in here than say jump ahead. I haven’t skied these glades much but they are we spaced and not to rocky.
Liftline Cliffs
Big cliffs under both the Mountaineer and the Yankee. Drops here range from small to huge, with especially big sends under the Yankee.
Fever Trees
Rocky, steep glades, that used to be on the trail map. These take a good amount of snow to be doable and are not commonly traveled.
Lower Alpine Slide
The lowest section of the slide and the mountaineer lifeline. Can be fun and is skiable pretty early in the season.
Middle Apline Slide
A fun little section between White Horse and Ptarmigan. Enter from White Horse and enjoy the turns by the slide.
Pro Liftline
A flat section under the lift that can have some powder. Entering from Thad’s will likely require ducking a rope, so entering from the learning center is one way to avoid that. Coming in there will lose some vertical, though
Zipline
This trail runs along the line of the old Attitash zip line. It is not steep but can be fun on a powder day.

Recoil
A fun glade in the woods skier’s right of the Abenaki. A good pitch and the relatively hidden nature of this area means that it keeps good snow. I have not skied it in a couple years but I know there are a few cliffs that can be fun to drop.
Just Bearly
A connector between Snowdancer and Myth Maker. Not very useful but it used to be on the trail map.
Cathedral Glades
Fun glades that take a lot of snow to fill in. There are lots of rocks in here. Not many people ski these glades and they tend to enter at the official glade section much further down, making these a good place to score some powder.

Yankee Liftline
Continuing on from Alpine Slide, this short section can has some decent snow and has a big boulder that may be sendable. This is closed for a reason though, and making sure to avoid the low chairs is key.

Upper Alpine Slide
A fun run that can be pretty sketchy depending on the snow. Enter from Moat or Turkey Chute. If there’s enough snow, it can be fun to ski on and around the section of the slide. If not, avoid this run.
Avenger Glades
Accessed via Illusion on the skier’s right. Short but sweet with a good pitch and visibility from the lift.
Illusion Glades
Despite me calling these the Illusion Glades, they are most commonly accessed from the right side of Wandering via obvious spaces in the trees. The glades here have a good pitch, decent snow and some fun obstacles. Good to link Risky River or the Natural Halfpipe.

Powder Hound
Enter through the woods on the left of Wandering Skis. Hopefully there will be tracks to lead you, as getting lost here is extremely easy. Don’t go unless you know what you are doing. When skiing Powder Hound, make sure to stay skier’s right and enjoy the low angle powder. It is mostly open but there are also sections of glade. If following the correct path, you should find yourself and the start of a short hike that pops out at the hotel.
Natural Halfpipe
Enter to the right of Broken Arrow Glade, where there will likely be some tracks dropping in. It starts as a wide open trail through the woods that is extremely chill, before there is a stream that may be necessary to hop depending on the snow. After that is the halfpipe itself, that is not really much of a halfpipe but does have some great jumps.
Risky River
One of the best areas at the mountain. Enter through the visible gap in the trees after the first turn on wandering, and traverse over to the best part of the woods. This section is very well spaced and has a good pitch. After skiing deep into the woods, the options narrow out and the run funnels towards a riverbed. The next portion of the run is about avoiding falling in by staying high on the banks, hence the name. Make sure to keep some speed and this section can be fun. The glades filter into the natural halfpipe.
Snow Mobile Path
A good way to make it to bear without using bearback, making it possible to ski the glades under the Abenaki and still cut over in time.
Jacob’s Ladder
This run used to be on thee map and known as Jacob’s Ladder, but it was removed at some point. These glades are somewhat mediocre and rocky.

Summit Lift Line
One of the gnarliest runs at Attitash. This takes a lot of snow to fill in, as there are countless boulders and sharks. It also never opens, so a rope will have to be ducked in order to attempt. If you do decide to risk it, the powder is great and some of the best drops at the mountain are here, including the infamous “Double Pillow Line”. This line is a real treat if it’s in.
Elephant Johnson
Named for the mountain biking trail at the top of it, EJ is a steep glade that can keep good snow and is a fun adventure. It is one of the longest glades on the mountain and the trees are well spaced.
Kachina Chutes
This run is used as a connector to the top of the Abenaki from the Flying Bear when Kachina Falls is closed. It is steep and can be rocky, but it is worth it not to have to ride the Abenaki.
Tightrope-Ptarmigan Connection
This should never be used to connect the two runs, as it is completely flat, but when I was last there many years ago, there was a cool teepee.
Drop Ahead
A tiny mountain biking trail I haven’t done in years. I forget if it is possible to exit easily onto Lower Ptarmigan or if it is nesescary to exit beneath the Yankee. Either way, there is a steep drop with a sign that says drop ahead, hence the name.
Name Pending
I don’t have a name for this run but it is a nice way to get to northwest instead of Humphrey’s. It is similar to grandma’s house but not as long and not quite as fun. Enter right above the jump on the left of Saco.
Steep Tight Glades
I’ve never called these anything except the steep tight glades. They aren’t actually that steep or tight though but they can have some serious rocks.
Moat Woods
Nice glades that are great when there is powder. Not much else to say.
Kids Will Be Kids
Enter next to the small sign. This is one of the rockiest runs at Attitash and thus takes a lot of snow to fill in. Do not attempt unless the snow has been good. Most of the grade is pretty mellow and fun, but the exit can get hairy.

Jerry’s Option
Another mountain biking trail. Short but steep and it can hold some good snow.
Grandma’s House
An Attitash classic. Enter next to the cut out of an old lady holding cookies outside her house. This is a mountain biking trail so there is only one path down, but it has dips and sharp turns that make it extremely fun. Very mellow but still worth the time.
Upper TNDL
This is not at all worth it. First, you must duck the rope. Then, traverse and sidestep through what is likely untouched powder. At the end of this is a steeper section that is bushy and not worth your time.
Top Notch Double Line
This may be unskiable at this point. Back when the Top Notch Double existed, this was skiable, though broken up by a massive cliff in the middle. Now the line is completely over grown and the cliff may be unsendable. I don’t plan on trying this line any time soon.

Jug Handle
One of the best lines at Attitash. Step over the pipe and ski to where the line splits into two. Take whichever side seems most appealing and enjoy the few pow turns under the lift. Be prepared to drop a small cliff after the turns. Continue to Ptarmigan from here or bank left into the obvious trail through the woods that leads to tightrope.
Old Saco
Take the obvious entrance by the out of bounds sign. Not usually roped off. Pretty tight but not steep at all. There is a downed tree at some point. At the end is a large cliff with a flat landing on Saco. Keep in mind that there are people skiing down Saco when dropping. It is easy to skirt around the cliff if it isn’t your thing.

Mountaineer
Opened a few times these past years. Pretty flat but can be fun.
