Snowmaking Upgrades
As of January 2020, 73 percent of Loon's snowmaking equipment is considered low energy. When these snowguns operate, they perform at a 4:1 return, meaning 200 snowguns run with the same energy it took to run 50 guns in the early 2000s. Read more about sustainability in snowmaking!

Downhill Mountain Biking, Summer 2021 and Beyond | More Trails + Bigger Lift

Our teams have gotten a head start and we plan on opening over 4 miles of new trail by the end of summer 2022. We're also moving our bike headquarters at loon to the Governor Adams Lodge Base Area and Kancamagus 8.
