Enchanted Forest Cross Country Ski Area

Last day of the regular season
March 28th!

Wednesday, March 24, 2021:  It snowed 12″ overnight and this morning on top of 3″ from Sunday, Monday and Tuesday!

We are staying open past our March 21 closing date, but we are short-staffed. We will pack as much as possible today and try to set tracks by tomorrow.

90% Open (Lower Northwest Passage, Outer Jabberwocky and Linda’s Leg are closed),
Please be aware that we are seeing spring conditions most days – firm and fast in the mornings, slushy and slow by mid-afternoon, icy late in the day.

If you don’t see a current update, call for an honest ski report!

COVID-19: Here are a few steps you can take to make your visit more pleasant and to get you on the trails faster.

• Rental reservations are also available to assure availability but are not strictly necessary.
