Ski Butternut

Massachusetts, United States

Ski Butternut, also known as Butternut Basin, is a ski resort in Great Barrington, Massachusetts, US, on Warner Mountain in The Berkshires. Channing and Jane Murdock took control of the area in 1963, naming the area Butternut Basin after the large groves of butternut trees in the basin of the mountain. The Kennedys, family friends of the Murdocks, visited Butternut. The Murdocks' son Jeffrey took over the resort in 1994. The mountain has 22 trails, ten ski lifts including five quad lifts, two terrain parks, an area for tubing in winter, and a PSIA-affiliated ski school. In the off-season, the mountain hosts a number of summer concerts and festivals, including the annual Berkshires Arts Festival.
