On Deck: Moonlit Guided Walk in the Woods, Bogburn & Gunstock Freestyle

Fred Bailey · January 2, 2024 ·

Mother Nature may not be cooperating in the snow department right now, but the New England skiing community is finding fun ways to share their excitement for winter. We have three great events on the calendar this weekend, with something for everyone – whether it be a guided hike and evening around a fire pit or racing for all ages on fantastic snowmaking loops in classic and freestyle formats. Gather your family or friends and enjoy the weekend’s adventures!

Moonlit Guided Walk in the Woods

Carter’s XC Ski center is hosting a Moonlit guided tour. Learn about the history of the area, observe native plants and animal tracks, and discover more information about nordic skiing, outdoor recreation and more. After the guided tour there will a bonfire and snacks at various rates provided by a local chef. This is part of NENSA’s 2023-24 Community Tours & Events.

Bogburn Classic

This long running event will be hosted at the Rikert Nordic Center on artificial snow. This is a relaxed interval start classic race and it is part of the NENSA Zak Cup and Club Cup Series. The tradition of BKL racing and rewarding all age classes will continue in the honor of Bob Haydock. Ribbons for BKL, Skida hats for winners.

Gunstock Freestyle

Taking place on Sunday, this is low key interval start freestyle race. This event is part of the NENSA Zak Cup and Club Cup Series. The Gunstock Nordic Ski Association will be hosting this event at the Holderness School on a 1.4km artificial snow loop.
