Good News Cross Country Skiers

Snow is there but it is wet snow.

To the die-hard skiers. The rain took away some coverage but there is still decent coverage on trails leading to the Experimental Forest trails. Trail surface is too wet to groom today. Trails surface will be wet snow, corn snow with some gray ice down low. We are open on a donation basis. Ski first then donate what you feel it was worth. We groomed Wednesday on Waterfall Trail, Experimental Forest Trails and Albany brook trails(these trails should have decent coverage). We may groom again tomorrow. It is a wait and see situation. Coverage on river trails gone, but coverage in experimental Forest Trails is still decent. Skiers are amazed we still have pleasant spring skiing. Birds are out, water is flowing, sounds and smell of spring are everywhere. Skiing is too good to miss, but it will not last forever. Come out and enjoy a relaxing ski on our scenic trail network.

Due to concerns about the corona virus we will be closing all public indoor areas. We will no longer be preparing soups or bread. Our warming area and rental area will closed to public use.  Rentals will no longer be available. Though we are grooming mostly for our season pass holders we are offering public access on a fresh air basis. We do take this virus very seriously, but believe with precautions, people can and should still enjoy outdoor sports safely. We have several picnic tables spaced out for public use. We recommend bringing a lunch and enjoy some scenic open air dining.

Let us make a Bear Notch Believer out of you.
