We're still out here skiing! Tuesday's storm brought between 2 inches to 5 inches to North Conway, 6 inches to 8 inches to Bartlett, and eight to ten inches to Bretton Woods! People are out on the mountains as we speak, making the most of the 24-hour snowfall!
The remaining few weeks of skiing will take us into spring, where ski areas have a lot of entertainment coming your way. Spring parties are planned at many of the resorts with live music, pond skimming, races, raffles, and more! Event highlights are listed below.
