Trails are sugar-coated! Conditions should be great for the weekend as this granular snow coats our groomed trails. Weekend weather looks cold and sunny - we hope to see you out on the trails or warming by the fire pit at the Barn!
Trails were groomed Sunday morning and again this morning. Beautiful base with packed powder. Best skiing in years!!!
Trails are groomed and looking beautiful after yesterday's snow. Bowl Loop, Little Dyer Pond, Slick Rock, and the Couch Hill Loop are all groomed.
With the snow Sunday conditions are looking great! With the sun hitting the trails this morning the snow is getting a little stickier but the conditions are still really good. We groomed Pond Trail, and the Couch Hill after the storm Sunday so there is decent skiing everywhere. A lot of skiers breaking trails on the ones we didn’t groom so a lot of fresh tracks to be had!
Snow has fallen and the forecast continues to look good!! HVNC has seen almost 7 inches of snow in the last week and conditions are good. With the warmer temps towards the end of the last storm the snow is a little sticky but still great. We continue to groom Pond Trail and a loop from Couch Hill back around Kidney Pond Trail. Follow the corduroy road! or not…fresh tracks to be had everywhere else. We will be out grooming over the weekend as well as we see more snow! Happy Skiing!
Welp, we finally have the fluffy stuff! We saw about 4 inches of snow and has made for great conditions! We have groomed Pond Trail and Kidney Pond around and down Couch Hill leaving lots of fresh tracks to be had. Enjoy!
We hope everyone enjoyed this recent blast of wintery weather. Midcoast Conservancy is closed for the holidays from 12/25 - 1/1, but Hidden Valley Nature Center is always open to the public for skiing, snowshoeing, and other activities.
We received about 4-5 inches of snow so the coverage is light - watch for rocks and roots and note that since we are closed no trails are currently groomed.
Come on out and enjoy the snow before that four letter r-word hits in a few days and washes our fun away until the next snow.
(Note - photo is not of current conditions.)
Winter is still on its way, with the warmer temps we are watching the weather with great anticipation. We are still clearing trails from last weeks blustery rain, and the ground thawing has made for muddy conditions on the trails. Cross our fingers that with colder temps coming we will see some of the white fluffy stuff soon. Check out HVNC Ski Club starting up in the new year if you’re looking for a folks to talk snow with!
We are gearing up for our winter season and look forward to welcoming skiers, snowshoers, and sledders. Check back here for regular updates on trail conditions and grooming reports. See you on the trail!
It is a slushy, winter wonderland out here, but the trails are a bit of a mess. We have about 8 inches of wet snow covering muddy trails with lots of blowdowns and saplings overhanging into the trails. We won’t be grooming this storm due to the consistency of the snow and rain in the forecast. Trail cleanup will likely be a multi-day event.
