Reports have been good from Bretton Woods, Bear Notch and Prospect Farm. So, how about a Prospect Farm ski for Thursday? There should be space in the parking lot and many options up there to ski. Bright sunshine predicted!
I will not be able to join you... I will be up on the Cross New Hampshire Adventure Trail doing some video of trail users in the good weather!
Meet at 10:00 am in the lodge at JacksonXC, ready to ski. You can carpool up to Prospect From there.

Bretton Woods Nordic Ski. 10:00 am
Thursday, January 23, 2020
Looks like a sunny day on Thursday with temperatures rising above freezing. This makes for a good day on the trails at Bretton Woods. Reports have been good from skiers who have enjoyed the good snow on the trails up there over the past few days!
Meet in the Bretton Woods Nordic Center Lodge at 10:00 am. We will head out and do a counter clockwise loop, enjoying their groomed trails of the day. Mountain Road has not been open recently, so we will likely need to save that adventure for another trip up there later this season.
Bring your JacksonXC pass and you will get a half price ticket ($10:50 for adults).
Also bring snacks and lunch!
If you would like to carpool meet at the parking lot at Grant's at 9:10 am, otherwise, see you at Bretton Woods!

New Snow! JacksonXC 11:00 am meet time
Thursday, January 16, 2020
JacksonXC at 11:00 am
Update as of 8:30 am Thursday morning: Looks like Prospect Farm is the current best place to be. There may be other options by 11:00 which can also be considered. Winter Wonderland out there! Happy shoveling out your car and driveway!
I am watching the weather forecasts, listening to skier's reports and reading the trail condition reports at various xc ski locations. Two great reports from Prospect Farm. Likely Prospect had more base preserved than other places.
It will be starting to snow late tonight and into tomorrow, so that should be excellent.
Since it will still snow, but ease up over the morning, I am pushing the start time one hour later to 11:00. Once again I am choosing JacksonXC as likely the best option, considering the good reports today. It is not too far away (for most of us...) to drive in the snow. It is probably not worth driving up and over the notches to either Great Glen or Bretton Woods, we will let them accumulate more base. I think next week we are likely to get good skiing anywhere we want!
Lets meet in the JacksonXC lodge, ready to ski at 11:00 am. Again we can see what has been freshly opened and groomed and choose the best option. Perhaps it will be Prospect Farm, and we can carpool up there.
I will update this report early in the morning once I see the report and what is possible to ski!

Let's meet again at JacksonXC at 10:00 am in the lodge.
There have been more groomed k's added over last few days with the new snow. We will pick the best option of the day.
Bring some snacks or lunch for a trailside energy boost!
