Escoheag Hill

Escoheag Hill is a hill off Escoheag Hill Road in West Greenwich, Rhode Island. The hill was the site of the former Pine Top Ski Area.

The ski area opened in the 1965-66 season and had two T-Bar lifts, night skiing, and snow-making. For a short period in the 1970s, there was also a summertime motorcycle park. The ski area closed around 1980, and the lodge burned in the mid-1980s.[1] The area is now part of the Arcadia Wildlife Management Area.[2]
