Moonlight Ski and Snowshoe Pt. 2

Mackenzie Rizio · February 14, 2024 ·

Carter’s XC Ski Center hosted the second edition of their Moonlight Ski and Snowshoe guided tour for the season. Taking place 4 weeks after the first event allowed for this event to be on snow this time around. This event was part of NENSA’s Community Tours and Events series. The February event had some in common with the January edition, as we learned about the Carter family’s connection with the land, which is home to their ski trails. We skied out to a yurt in the forest, and took some fun trails back, which became more challenging with the sun setting, to a warm bonfire at the lodge.

The next stop in the Community Tours and Events Series is a satellite Women’s Day opportunity at Black Mountain of Maine on March 9th.
