Current & emerging conditions: Sunday- March 16, 2007
Spring Skiing and late season Snowmobile Conditions are setting up very nicely folks. There is at least a 2+' foot snow pack in the upper elevations outside of Franconia town center and it is dense. Having already experienced 2 warming trends "the fluff is gone", yet what we have now is perfect spring sugar and corn snow, sandwiched between moments of fresh powder as storms do frequent still happen. This time of year the powder doesn't last yet it's still a blast. So is the fact that we also get the enjoyment of long & bright sunny days on the slopes, trails and White Mountain summits beyond.

Late Winter- early Spring trail hiking conditions for hikers and forest trekkers are also in fine shape however icy conditions should be expected, as should be quite variable weather conditions with wide variations in temperates from day to night. Upper elevations and above tree line areas should be avoided unless properly prepared to deal with severe winter conditions still. Safety First.
