Rangeley, Maine

Snow season brings many attractions to this center. Dog sled racing, skiing and snowboarding across its various tracks makes this a cool center during the cooler months. During the summer, its trails are free to hike so year-round activities are available. Within the center is also a small shop and sports equipment rental.

Powder Dreams Ski Shop has been in business for over 25 years. This locally-owned and operated shop offers ski, alpine, snowboard and snowshoe rentals. They will equip you head to toe with your sports gear of choice, so you can have lots of winter sports fun.

The Alpine Shop is an all-purpose retail shop, where you can find just about everything you need for your home or wardrobe. First opened in 1959, the Alpine Shop has grown in size and now even has an online store, where you can purchase clothing, jewelry, kitchen accessories, special products only made in Maine and more.

Get in some shopping as well as a little ice skating at Ecopelagicon. This establishment sits on Haley Pond and sells outdoor gear and a variety of products created in New England like soaps, lotions, clothing, food and jewelry.

The sense of smell is a powerful one. Now, you can transport yourself back to your mountain vacation with these fragrances created using natural oil from balsam fir trees. It is sold in many shops throughout Maine as well as online.
