Good news Cross Country Skiers

We Are Open!

Even though mother nature has been stingy with the snow, We have decent cross country skiing and snowshoeing available. Half inch new snow overnight

Our location in the Bartlett Snow belt is a help.

Now that temp's have dropped and snow has drained we have groomed our Upper Meadow, Lower Fields though to our Upper Saco River Trails, Waterfall Trail, Experimental Forest Trails, and East Albany Brook Trail.

Skiers can expect a loose granular- sugar snow mix. There will be some thin spots but skiing is well worth it. The skiers we talked with cannot believe that skiing is as good as it is considering the weather pattern. Most are returning tomorrow.

We have 10 km open for X-C skiing and 40 km open for snowshoeing.

Let us make a Bear Notch Believer out of you!
