A Foot of Flurries in the Forecast - the White Mountains are for hardy souls

By
Managing Real Estate Broker with Alpine Lakes Real Estate Inc., NHRE# 02863

That's right, A Foot of Flurries in the Forecast...A Northeast dusting. The weather in New England can change fast, this morning we had blue sky's - but the maps were telling us we had better get ready for the white stuff.

   Cannon Mountain - Blue sky's and just a hint of clouds on the leading edge of winter weather.

  A Short time later...more clouds than sun envelope the ski slopes, but no one is complaining.

 It's gone from clear to cloudy in a matter of minutes, this is the Franconia Notch State Park. All that travel this route know you never come out the way you went in. Both side of this parkway have White mountain peaks rising up sharply to over 5,000 feet of near vertical summits. Cannon, Lafayette, Lincoln, Little Haystack and Liberty Mountains (all over 4,000 feet) form this chain looking down at the thread of pavement below.

When you get snow where you live they cancel school and you hunker down at Home, in the White Mountains we wax our skis and hit the highway...to our favorite recreational ski resort. The White mountain National forest is great for snowshoeing or back country cross-country skiing. A new Foot of Snow -Bring it on!!

Love the photos we have had a lot of snow days here in Michigan this year. Usually we deal with a few inches but this year it seems the snow came in feet instead of inches.

Steve.. One of the advantages of living in NH is that you get SNOW.  Like others have mentioned, and so did I, we got rain... One can never get too much snow.  Enjoy.  Great pics.
