Moderate to difficult. Moderate pace. 14+/- miles. 1400+/- elevation gain. Smuggler’s Notch Road. We will ski the Notch Road (closed to cars in the winter) from the road barrier at Barnes Camp in Stowe to the road barrier south of Smugglers Notch Resort in Cambridge and back. Due to the elevation, this is a popular early season spot for skiing on natural snow. Contact Leader: Phyllis Rubenstein, 793-6313 or phyllisruby2022@gmail.com for meeting time and place.
