Mount Washington operations will be limited this weekend because of warmer, wetter conditions.
Heavy rain Thursday evening and early Friday Morning is forcing the alpine resort to close the Hawk Chair due to the snowpack surrounding the chairlift suffering from the conditions.
The Sunrise chairlift also remains closed, with the Whiskey Jack chairlift the only one running.
As a result of the limited access, Mount Washington is offering reduced ticket pricing throughout the weekend, which is available for purchase in-person only.
Trails at the Nordic level have also been affected and opening is on stand-by until crews can assess the terrain.
Reduced trail passes will be available for $10.
The Nordic Fest and Loppet scheduled for this weekend has been cancelled, but the free Nordic passholder BBQ will still go ahead on Sunday, said Mount Washington.
Temperatures are expected to drop starting Friday night and early Saturday morning, with a chance of a fresh snowfall on Sunday.
