Yawgoo Valley

Yawgoo Valley is the only surviving skiing resort in Rhode Island. It is located on a hill in Exeter, south of Providence and opened in the 1965–66 season as "Rhode Island's first chairlift served ski area."
As one of the southernmost ski areas in New England, Yawgoo relies heavily on artificial snowmaking. Lift tickets range from $28 on weekdays to $45 on weekends. Yawgoo valley also offers a snow-tubing park with eight lanes and two lifts.
The area's title as the first lift service area in RI was appropriate, as it opened at a time when chair service was not expected of any ski area. As a result, a large amount of skiers went to Yawgoo Valley instead of the four other RI ski areas, who all still relied on T-Bars only.
While Rhode Island's other four ski resorts would close over the next few years, Yawgoo Valley's use of two chairs and keeping up with more modern ski area technologies such as better snowmaking equipment kept them operational.
They also operate one of only six tubing parking in the entire Southern New England area for additional revenue from both skiers and non-skiers.

Trails

Yawgoo offers 14 skiing trails served by two chairlifts, snow tubing in the winter and, in the summer, a water park with of water slides. Because of its southern location, the trails are generally easier, including the four blacks, as they rarely face the extreme weather and temperatures the resorts further north do, and is also less steep since it has a very small vertical drop.
