Wowza - Wowza - Wowza

As of yesterday the Waterville Valley ski area road, just to the left of the entry to the Tripoli Rd has a police line-barricade/wood horses and orange rope line CLOSING the road up to the ski area, which had stopped operating all their lifts about ten days.

It has signs that say Closed to Unauthorized Vehicles. Never seen a similar road block closure here before so it's a first.

You can still find some pretty good cross country skiing/hiking, about one mile up the Tripoli Rd starting at the Depot Camp parking lot. The restrooms are boarded closed, and the five dollar parking fee, steel deposit box is wrapped with a trash bag and small sign, 'no fee' ..... so, it is free to park your car ..... and you got miles of mountain woods with snow covered trails, out there, also good for hiking and mountain biking with wide, smooth trails closed to motor vehicles.

The sky is blue, the sun is brite, the snow is hard, thick, strong, and brite white from recent small snow fall, the price is free ..... and the trails and woods are very empty of anyone ...... is time to hit those Forest Service multi-use, cross country ski trails.

Let's have a ski party ....... with 50' social distancing ...... hoo-yuh! ...... the state liquor store back at Exit 28 is open and wines have been marked down! ........ celebrate the Team Campton, state liquor store - xc ski trails ...... wowza-wowza-wowza! ..... am just kidding around here ...... but the trails are good to go for xc skiers, at this time.
