Prerequisites
Have tried cross country skiing

Put on your skis and join us for a nice glide through the snow at Lincoln Woods Trail!

We will start at the Lincoln Woods trailhead and ski down the flat and wide Lincoln Woods trail. We aim to reach the scenic Franconia Falls and/or Black Pond (about 3.5 miles), and then continue down to the Bondcliff trail to see how far we get before we hit our turnaround time.

This trip is aimed at cross-country skiers that are comfortable skiing on groomed resort trails and want an introduction to backcountry cross-country skiing. Ungroomed trails come with their own challenges, including lack of tracks, uneven surfaces, and more gear to carry. Total distance will likely be >6 mi, so you should be in good fitness.
