Waterville Valley, New Hampshire, Shares Images Of Solar Eclipse

Waterville was just outside the path of totality, therefore experiencing a "deep partial," slightly less dramatic version of the solar eclipse.

Still, skiers and snowboarders had plenty to get excited about at Waterville. Complimentary eclipse glasses were on hand (you'll fry your eyes if you look at the eclipse without them), and the resort held the Solar Summit Soiree—a mountaintop party with complimentary champagne and hors d'oeuvres

It's tough to think of a better way to wrap up the season. Waterville Valley's final day of operations this year is this weekend, Saturday, April 13th (the resort will host an employees-only ski day on April 14th).

Luckily, you won't need to wait until 2044—when the next solar eclipse touches down in North America—to ski again at Waterville Valley after this weekend. The 2024-2025 ski season will be here before you know it.
