Drove up to Bretton Woods on Wednesday to kick off our season with riding on Thursday.
The drive up was an adventure. 38 and cloudy at the house but temps dropped quickly by the Tilton/Franklin area. Snow picked up in earnest around Plymouth and by the time we hit Franconia Notch the roads were untouched by plows. Cleared up a bit on route 3 and 302 with temps jumping back up to 30.
The hotel was nice and festive with all the decorations. Definitely busier than I was expecting for a Wednesday night. There were three full bus loads of people there for something.
Thursday on the slopes was great. Excellent conditions, no ice to speak of, plenty of 8”-10” powder on the side of the trails. In and out of snow, wind and sun all day. A really good start to the season!
