Saddleback Mountain - Hudson Highway

Hudson Highway is a beginner ski trail located at Saddleback Mountain. The trail runs from the top of the Rangeley Express Quad, down to the bottom of the chairlift at the main base area. The trail starts off the back of the top of the chairlift and starts out flat and curves to the right before entering a large intersection. Passing through this intersection, the trail narrows and mellowly curves itself down the middle of the mountain. The trail eventually straightens out as it makes its return to the base area, passing by the bottom of the t-bar on the way.

Saddleback Maine is a ski area located in Sandy River, Maine. The ski area is located just outside the town of Rangeley in Northwestern Maine in Franklin County. The ski area is located about 2 hours north of Lewiston and 2.5 hours north of Portland. The ski area is the third-largest in the state in terms of both vertical and skiable area. The ski area is broken up into three main sections, each served by a chairlift. The section below the lodge, serviced by the South Branch Quad, is home to a variety of groomed beginner trails and is Saddleback's main learn-to-ski area. The middle section of the ski area, located right above the lodge and is served by the Rangeley Express Quad as well as the Cupsuptic T-Bar, is home to a variety of mostly intermediate and advanced trails which range from wide-open groomers to glades. The upper section of the mountain, located just east of the rest of the resort and served by the Kennebago Quad, is home to the resort's, and some of New England's, steepest and most extreme terrain, the Kennebago Steeps, as well as a couple of intermediate trails. The ski area recently reopened in 2020 after closing in 2015 after financial difficulties. The new owners have been ambitious with their reopening plans, installing a new high-speed chairlift, and planning on multiple new condo developments to be built in the next couple of years. The ski area is a member of the Indy Pass, granting pass holders 2 days at the resort.
