The Middlebury College Snowbowl is a ski area in Hancock, Vermont, 13 miles (21 km) east of Middlebury in the Green Mountains. The site has been owned and operated by Middlebury College since its first trails were cut in 1934.[1] The Snowbowl has 17 trails and 3 lifts, offering access to more than 700 acres (2.8 km2) of terrain. In 2006, it became the first carbon-neutral ski area in the United States.[2]
