editThe airport is mainly used for private aircraft (seasonal) but during the summer a soaring company called Sugarbush Soaring operates a glider service, offering scenic rides and lessons from May-September. The airport closes in the winter when snow is on the ground and is transformed into a Nordic ski center called Ole's. Ole's uses the airport and surrounding land for trails.[citation needed]
