Fall Foliage Reports

WHITE MOUNTAINS REGION (Updated 10/27/11)

The White Mountains region is mostly past peak, but a drive to this area now will not completely disappoint leaf peepers, as there are still some bold yellows and oranges to be seen. What remains are mainly muted colors, including rust and gold, with the addition of a new color – white! Snow is in the forecast, which will brighten up the landscape, especially the mountain summits. It’s nearly time for the ski season, so make plans to visit this region for some of the best skiing in the east. Will this be your year to try downhill or cross country skiing? How about snow tubing, dog sledding, or winter hiking? Not a skier? Check out the day spas in this region, and relax in a bubbling hot tub or enjoy a massage as you watch the snow come down outside.



GREAT NORTH WOODS REGION (GRAND NORTH) (Updated 10/27/11)




Fall has come and gone in the Great North Woods region. Despite some remaining faded gold and oranges in the lower elevations, and occasional yellows in the hillsides, the area is past peak and most of the leaves are on the ground. Now is the time to enjoy the panoramic views through the bare trees, or act like a kid again by raking up a pile of crunchy leaves and jumping in! Remember to wear blaze orange if you go hiking right now, as hunting season is on. As the temperature drops and snow begins to fall, consider visiting this region for excellent snowmobiling tours. Find a secluded cabin, stoke up the fire, and enjoy the peace and quiet.


LAKES REGION (UPDATED 10/27/11)
While many leaves have dropped in the Lakes region, there is still some color to be seen. Look for muted yellows, gold, some oranges and even some remaining soft reds all around the area. Occasional bright oranges and yellows can still be found along the waterways. As fall makes its change into winter, this region offers some great cold weather sports, including ice fishing, ice skating, and ice sailing. The lakes and ponds here provide beautiful winter scenery once they freeze over, so bring your camera as you travel through this area during the frosty cold months.

Loon Mountain Invests $1.4 Million to Add More Snowmaking, Four New Trails, and New Park Locations



LINCOLN, NH – After investing $20 million in the past five years to add more terrain, uphill capacity and state-of-the-art snowmaking and grooming technology, Loon Mountain continues its commitment to providing a great guest experience in 2011-2012 with a $1.4 million investment to add four new trails (an additional 17.5 acres), and an additional 170 of the latest technology Low-E tower snow guns.
In the past two seasons, Loon has added 600 highly-efficient Low-E HKD tower snow guns to its arsenal, increasing overall snow production by as much as 150%, and maximizing snow output at a wider range of temperatures. For skiers and riders, this means more terrain open earlier, more snow and better conditions all season. Loon has the largest installation of these state-of-the-art, highly-efficient snowmaking guns in North America.
A new Prinoth “Bison” grooming machine has been added to Loon’s fleet, which also includes a Prinoth “Beast,” added last season. The “Beast” features 40% more grooming surface and pushing power than a standard machine, as well as state-of-the-art technology to provide the best snow surface possible.
Four new trails debut at Loon this season: Upper and Lower Twitcher and Jobber, which are expert trails on South Peak; and Dropline, a novice trail and the new home of Loon’s Burton Progression Park. The new trail names are all logging terms that follow the naming convention of many of Loon’s classic trails, such as Walking Boss, Flume and Ripsaw. Upper and Lower Twitcher and Jobber will add even more terrain variety on South Peak.
This winter, the parks lineup changes with new and improved locations on the mountain. The Burton Progression Park, formerly on Little Sister, has been moved to a new trail called Dropline located off Bear Pause, next to Grand Junction. Little Sister Park has been renamed as Springboard Park and moves to the trail formerly known as Race City. Springboard – in addition to Brookway Extension and Flying Fox – showcases some of the mountain’s best jibs and intermediate features. NASTAR will move from the former Race City trail to a new location on Lower Twitcher on South Peak. Missing Link Park, the natural park that debuted last winter and features elements made from materials from the surrounding woods, moves to skiers’ right of the new Dropline trail. The signature Loon Mountain Park – consistently ranked by Transworld Snowboarding as a top park in the East – stays put in its location off the Seven Brothers lift. Readers of Transworld Snowboarding voted Loon Mountain Park a top 3 park in the east again this year.

Loon plans to open for the 2011-2012 winter season in early to mid November. New England Passes are available at preseason prices through October 10. For more information and to purchase New England Passes visit www.loonmtn.com.

Riverfire in Berlin on Oct. 22, 2011




Just as the nights are getting colder in New England, the City of Berlin will be warming things up with one of the best fall festivals around—RiverFire! On Saturday, October 22th, come to “the city that trees built” to catch a full day of fun, ending with some dramatic fires on the river.

Voted “Best of NH 2007” by New Hampshire Magazine, RiverFire burns bigger and brighter every year, and this year there are some fun new activities for everyone. Starting at 1:00pm, the gates of the Northern Forest Heritage Park, 961 Main Street, Berlin, NH will open to activities and vendors for visitors of ALL ages. Admission to the park is FREE.

This year there will be hot air balloon rides, and a children’s bouncy village with inflatable houses. Admission to the bouncy houses, as well as many other children’s activities and a classic hayride will have a fee. For adventurous folks 13 and up, a 2-acre haunted village called “Horrorfest” will be presented by Theatre North. Enter if you dare for an admission price of $8!

At dusk, the Androscoggin River will be lit up with fires that appear to be floating on the water! The blazes will actually burn on the historic boompiers that dot the river. These piers were used during the height of the logging era, when they separated and guided the many trees that were sent down the river to the mills of Berlin. For RiverFire, these old piers will be stacked with skids, which when set aflame create a dynamic contrast of light over the dark waters. Take a walk along the bridge and admire the wonderful glowing carved pumpkins. It is a spectacle you won’t want to miss! FMI: 603-752-6060 or find RiverFire Berlin, NH on Facebook.

RiverFire promises to be the hottest event of the season!

Update to Loon Bridge


Lincoln, NH, September 28, 2011:  The damaged Loon Mountain Resort bridge, which provides access to the Resort from Route 112/The Kancamagus Highway, is being replaced by a temporary, two-lane vehicular bridge with a sidewalk, until the main bridge can be repaired next spring. This will allow normal winter operations to proceed as usual. In the meantime, the Resort remains open for fall events and activities, and alternate vehicular access is available via the South Peak Bridge, located two miles to the west in the town of Lincoln. 
Construction of the temporary bridge is being handled by the NH Department of Transportation (NH DOT) and is now underway.  The bridge is expected to be in place and open by mid-November. Repair work on the main bridge is slated to begin next spring, after the ski season ends, and will be conducted by an independent third-party contractor to be hired by the Town of Lincoln. The timeline for repair work and the main bridge reopening is not yet available.
Tropical Storm Irene dumped up to 10” of rain over the area on August 28, causing the East Branch of the Pemigewasset River to flood, undermining the bridge abutments and rendering  Route 112/The Kancamagus Highway impassable east of the Resort.  NH DOT closed the bridge on August 28 and then a portion of the bridge collapsed on August 31.  A temporary pedestrian bridge was put in place for the 36th Annual New Hampshire Highland Games, which took place on September 16-18, and Route 112/The Kancamagus Highway was opened a week ahead of schedule on September 10, in plenty of time for the important foliage season.
“We would like to thank Governor Lynch, who recognizes the importance of tourism and the ski industry to the State’s economy, and who made a quick resolution possible in time for the Highland Games and the important upcoming winter ski season, said Rick Kelley, Loon Mountain Resort’s president and general manager. We would also like to thank NH DOT, the Town of Lincoln and all the utility companies for their many hours of work on an aggressive schedule to reopen this important access to Loon Mountain.”

Loon’s Gondola Skyride is open daily through October 16 and Segway Tours are available daily through October 10.  The Loon Mountain Adventure Center and Riding Stable are open on weekends through October 10.  Loon hosts the popular Oktoberfest on October 8-9, followed by the new Monster Mud Run mountain obstacle challenge and Halloween Monster Bash on October 29. New England Passes are on sale at pre-season prices through October 10.
