Dutch Hill Alliance of Skiers and Hikers
​
DHASH is a Chapter of the Catamount Trail Association.  Our goal is to help skiers enjoy winter in our area, and to work with landowners and managers to make more non-commercial skiing opportunities available

​Catamount Trail Association
The Catamount Trail Association is a passionate group of backcountry skiers and outdoor enthusiasts. We believe days spent in the mountains with friends are powerful, and that those experiences should be open to everyone. As advocates, volunteers, supporters, and trailblazers, we are working to expand access to Vermont’s backcountry
