Recent warm, wet conditions at Mount Washington are affecting resort operations until colder, drier weather arrives.
Mount Washington said as of Tuesday, Jan. 13, the Sunrise chairlift and terrain on that side of the mountain are closed, and conditions at the Nordic Centre and Raven Lodge trails have also been affected.
As a result, alpine lift tickets and Nordic trail pass prices will be reduced accordingly, and quality guarantees are available at guest services.
The resort’s mountain operations teams are working to protect the remaining snowpack and keep as many trails open as possible.
Guests are being advised to check morning grooming and trail reports for details on what is open before arriving.
Resort officials said the start of the season has served as a stark reminder that all aspects of the mountain are a shared experience, which includes uncontrollable weather.
