Most ski areas offer special programs for women on the understanding that women often prefer to learn with other women, under the leadership of women instructors. Other programs are geared toward fitting in some snow time around a busy schedule of work, a home and kids.
Among the ones around the Granite State are these:
Cannon Mountain has a Women's Ski Program for two hours every Saturday and Sunday, for $38 a shot. Saturdays are for general improvement, Sundays focus on a different specific topic each week.
