Absolutely correct. But the terrain is still very nice.


I rode the lakes region the last 3 days on my 2 up with my 13 year old on his own. (shudder). We did Red Hill via center harbor day 1. Power lines (15s) down to meredith via center harbor and then winnipeasaukee out to weirs took a left and came back up to leavitt park and center harbor on day 2. and finally day 3 today we took 15n to castle in the clouds, rode to the top and back to center harbor 15s and on the lake back to leavitt park.

Not sure how the broads are doing but all the bays are pretty thick. Lots of bob houses and 4 wheelers and way too many sled tracks to count... Very excited for good riding at this time in January....

Update: Friday, Jan 8th. The Broads in Gilford is finally skimmed over and the Broads is always the last to freeze. Absolutely not ready for sleds or and other living thing but it looks like we are on our way to a good freeze. Lets just hope that we don't get a warm spell with wind.

Thanks Rickzach, I was up there all weekend and we had the calmest day in a long time on saturday ZERO wind so I figured it was about time. No temps above freezing forcasted in the near future. Also talk of a storm on wednesday, I hope it gains a 1/2 a foot or more by then of thickness.

Does anyone know the formula of how quick ice builds once it is locked and skimmed over ? Just curious. I've heard as much as 2 inches a night ? not sure though...

this is a comprehensive page about the ice in date and history. Within the forums there is a lot of talk from people around the lake that are physically watching it. Enjoy

I was by areas of the lake yesterday around Gilford. The lake is not locked up yet,but should be real soon with the predicted temps. This is probably a good thing if we get any measurable snow as it will insulate the ice from building as fast. The good thing was it was snowing most of the afternoon.

Dunphy - Did it freeze up today at all ? (thursday)...

Yeah just to touch on the Groomers. As we made our way back to twin mountain parking lot, we encountered some problems and the groomers stopped and asked if we were okay. They were certainly busy, but took the time to check on us and let us know exactly how far we were from Route 2 I think. At that point about 7-8 miles.
