Temple Mountain Ski Area was a downhill, or alpine, ski area that operated from 1938 until 2001 on Temple Mountain in the U.S. state of New Hampshire. During peak operation, the ski area featured a quad chairlift, a double chairlift, and multiple T-bars and rope tows. Like many other small ski areas in the country, it closed due to poor weather, rising costs and changing recreational habits.
Its entrance was located on New Hampshire Route 101, straddling the border of the towns of Temple and Peterborough.
The 350-acre (1.4 km) site, of which about 60 acres (240,000 m) was used for the ski area, was purchased in 2001 by a couple living in Temple, who in December 2007, sold it to New Hampshire, which created the Temple Mountain Reservation.
