This week at The Lodge: February 26 – March 3

I feel like a broken record … and the topic (thank goodness!) is SNOW!!! For whatever reason, winter has finally decided to show her true colors lately: a beautiful, abundantly fluffy WHITE!!! In fact, it’s become an almost daily occurrence in Jackson. Now I guess if there is bare ground, and thermometers that read in the upper 40’s where you live, you might have a hard time making the mental shift required to imagine awesome skiing in New Hampshire … but I can enthusiastically say that the skiing here is great. As a recent guest from Massachusetts just told us after an afternoon of skiing, “You just have to see it to believe it!”

And it is just in time! This upcoming weekend, March 3rd & 4th is the Bill Koch Festival up at Great Glen Trails. We are very excited to be a Lodging Partner for their 2012 New England Bill Koch Festival! This festival is a weekend long celebration of Nordic skiing for children, which will bring families from throughout New England and New York to the base of Mt. Washington. Activities will feature relay and individual races, a non-competitive ski tour, an on-snow obstacle course, opening ceremonies with a parade and a Saturday evening dinner. Great Glen Trails anticipates more than 400 children and their families will take part in the Festival. As of this writing, we have only 1 King room available for Friday night only, and it won’t be available long. Any takers?
