How high is Stoneham?

The base is below 3,281ft, so the lowest runs are the first to suffer in a mild spell; the upper mountain is the safer bet early and late in the season.

On those numbers it suits intermediates.

When is the ski season at Stoneham?

They leave out check-in and baggage time, and mountain roads in snow can take much longer. Check with airlines and transfer companies before booking.
