Cross-Country Skiing & Snowshoeing
 |
Bobcat Loop - offering a great combination of gentle rolls and climbs for beginning snowshoers , or providing a fast-paced aerobic worker for the more experienced. (.7 km) |
|
Little Notch Loop - easy climbs and descents make it perfect for beginners. Winds past ledges and rock outcroppings. Provides access to Bobcat Loop and Alexa's Run. (1.1 km) |
|
Tannery Alpine - a wide trail, popular with skiers who prefer the skating technique. Gentle to moderate climbs. (1.6 km)
Above the upper Tannery Loop crossing of Tannery Alpine exists the remains of Swanson's Sawmill, built during the 1920s. The foundation housed a steam boiler for the mill's operation. The Straight Brook and its feeder streams were dammed, providing the water supply for the boiler. Tannin, a chemical extracted from the bark of hemlock trees, was used in the tanning of leather for many years. |
