Cannon Mountain

Franconia Notch State Park

Best Value, most Challenge!
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

12/12/2004 Posted by fredplt

Cannon Mountain is home to some of New englands most challenging terrain. With virtually no lines, a a ten minute drive from Lincoln, it is the perfect mid winter mountain, with no crowds! It tends to snow more here than other ski resorts in NH and the snow is fast, skiers who love a challenge and want to let their skis go would enjoy a good day at Cannon. Watch for the bad days though, as great a mountain as Cannon is, on a bad day (which isn't too often) it can be one of the most challenging in the US! Impossible not to find, just go up I 93 and you will drive right into it, and enjoy. The prices are reasonable and the staff friendly, and with the shorter lines, you will ski 5 times more runs than all the crowds at Loon or Waterville Valley!

Pros: No Lines!, AWESOME terrain!, Great Prices!

Cons: , windy days are rough!, Watch for frostbite!
