History

The Civilian Conservation Corps cut the first ski trail on the mountain in 1934, making Black Mountain one of the oldest ski areas in New Hampshire.[1] The Goodrich Falls Hydroelectric Plant was constructed in 1935 on the Ellis River to power the resort's lift and lodge.[2] The power plant was built by Edwin Moody, owner of the ski area (then known as Moody's). Moody and local inventor George Morton constructed one of the first ski lifts in New Hampshire and used the plant to power the lift and lodge.[2]
