Terrain Park

Ski Bradford currently has a fairly large terrain park. The park layout differs every year but a miniature half-pipe is always part of the design. Among the layout are several rails including an A-frame rail and box, 2 or 3 down rails, and 2 small boxes for beginners. Their setup usually has one large kicker and then a few small ramps here and there.

Lift System

Ski Bradford currently contains eight operating lifts. Sources online, including their own website, currently do not provide the current, accurate lift information. As of March 2007 the lift information is as follows:

Lesson Programs

Ski Bradford has a large teaching staff and lesson programs. Dozens of schools are involved in after school ski clubs where many of the children involved partake in an hour-long lesson every week. The capacity is there that 30 lessons can be run simultaneously per hour and even more for after school programs where hour-long lessons begin every half hour between 3 and 5 PM. Walk-in lessons are also extremely popular at the area as many guests are spontaneous customers who had not planned for a day of skiing but may have been encouraged to ski by good weather.
