Friday night we got the perfect hit of early season snow. Yahoo. On Friday 8-10″ of heavy wet snow that settled/compacted to 6-8″ of dense slightly crusty snow by Sunday. Stay tuned for grooming updates and snow report.

I was looking back at some of the posts from November 2007 and was amazed to see how much snow there was on the trails. Click here to look back at November 07. Stay tuned for more great photos, event updates and conditions reports. -Liz

We have had a great fall at BV Nordic. It’s been perfect trail clearing weather. The fall foliage was beautiful and now it is starting to get cold. Winter is just around the corner.
The Vermont Division of Forestry is doing a photo contest. One of our long time Bolton Valley Nordic ski friends, Sheri Larsen, has a photo in the finals. It shows backcountry skiers enjoying the snow in the Mt. Mansfield State Forest/Little River State Park. Sheri’s photo is #3 and it is a great shot of skiers.
