+ About this map
Smugglers’ Notch is a northern Vermont resort with a split personality: it’s routinely ranked among the best family ski destinations in North America, yet its three interconnected mountains, Morse, Madonna, and Sterling, hide some of the steepest skiing in the East. The Black Hole, a tight, wooded triple black diamond, and the exposed Upper Liftline on Madonna give experts plenty to fear, while natural glades spill off nearly every ridge.
The resort takes its name from the narrow mountain pass beside it, used to smuggle goods to Canada during the 1807 trade embargo. Mount Mansfield and Stowe sit just over the notch. The contour map shows Madonna’s steep flanks and the dramatic cleft of the notch itself.
