Lincoln, NH

White Mountain rains are filling Loon Mountain's snow making ponds, in time for the snow machines to get cranked up. I drove up to the ski slopes today and the Snow guns were all out and ready for the first cold snap to start blowing the white stuff.

I have to say the Late October showers and the total lack of leaves, makes me ready for a change of season. The sign winter is near the clocks falling back, Wet cold weather,and tripping over my ski bag recently signaled change. Above shot: Bear Claw trail, view of Mount Washington over my left shoulder (last year).

See you on the hill soon...Loon Mt Lincoln NH

What a difference two weeks make, The first photo is from Early October and the second shot is from today.

Dramatic reds against a nearly clear blue sky...this day is behind us now. New Hampshire has shed its bright colors in favor of the grays and browns that occur soon after the peak of fall foliage.

The slopes of Loon Mountain Ski area, have gotten their first dusting of snow and a major loss of leaves...the grays and whites have set in, and you can bet this will be followed by more and more white.

One week ago today October 11th 4:30 in the afternoon from my kitchen window.

October 18th 4:30 same view from my kitchen window.

Its time to buy the ski season's pass and get the firewood in...the cold is coming and snow wouldn't be far behind.

I'll be ready for the ski season, will you?

Call me for your winter seasonal (multi-month rentals) or White Mountain Ski Resort purchases there are still some excellent values in the resort and second home market.

Columbus day in the White mountains was simply majestic...foliage was beautiful and many drove over the Kancamagus scenic highway to observe the leaves changing colors.

This morning one day after the fall foliage peak...of leaf peeper season, we woke to something not unexpected but too soon for many people taste. Yes Folks Snow in the White Mountains of New Hampshire.

We are expecting 1-3 inches of the white stuff, don't let it be said we can't move on. One day after the traditional three day holiday spent gazing at the leaves ...we turn to ski season.

I think New Hampshire State Motto is on target...Live free or Die, we are ready for anything you throw our way. This rusty box car is parked behind my office, I see it almost everyday and it's a reminder not to be too set in my ways...take things as they come and if you don't like the weather here just wait a few minutes it could be worse.

Ski Season at Loon Mountain in Lincoln New Hampshire starts before Thanksgiving...so the snow was going to come sooner or later.

I'll be ready, Steve Loynd your white mountain expert.
