This small ski area is in New England. The skiing and snow tubing operations are serviced by a chairlift and multiple surface lifts. Local residents refer to it as "Rod's" after its owner, Olympic skier Rod Taylor.[1] True locals refer to it as "Woodbury Rock & Gravel" after its previous name "Woodbury Ski and Racket" because snow coverage is often inadequate and the terrain can be damaging to skis and boards; recommended: use beaters or rentals. Taylor opened the resort in 1972.[1] Taylor took pride in Woodbury being the first ski area in Connecticut to open each season.[2] The ski area closed in 2016 following a drought and has not reopened since. It is currently for sale and the future is uncertain.[3] References1. ^The Republican-American: Roderick G. Taylor, former U.S. Olympic ski team member.
