Loon Mountain Resort is pleased to announce the appointment of Brian Norton as the resort’s new president and general manager.

Norton began his career at Loon as a lift attendant in 2001 while attending Plymouth State College.

While in his current role, he executed major projects including installation of the Kancamagus 8 chairlift and re-introduction of lift-serviced downhill mountain biking.

In 2020, Loon introduced a ten-year capital investment plan, FlightPath:2030, to bring modern innovations to many areas across the resort. Projects taking place this summer include replacement of Seven Brothers Triple with a significantly upgraded detachable quad chairlift and construction of four additional miles of downhill mountain biking trails which are slated to open during the summer.
