2022 - Saskadena Six
In the summer of 2022, the ski area retired the previous Suicide Six name for the now known, Saskadena Six. In the Abenaki language, Saskadena means "standing mountain," symbolizing a deep connection to the original inhabitants, the land, and the nearly 90-year legacy of this community treasure.
