I've heard that they have XC skiing in Minnewaska SP. DO they have skating trails, how many kms and how much do the harge for skiing?<br>Do they have a phone...
I skied there a number of years ago. As I recall there was a warming hut with a few snacks and rentals. I don't recall a trail fee, there may be. You are ...
Minnewaska does indeed have skating trails. Many times all they will do is role it out if they think it might be too hard to set tracks. When I go up there I ...
Has anyone skied the XC center, I believe it is in Farmington,CT? I'd be curious to hear if it's worth the trip and if there's enough terrain to keep a person...
Farmington has a spot called Winding Trails that can be fairly good. It's very tame terrain with an outer loop of about 5km. You can skate most of it. Four of...
I'm always on the lookout for new places to XC ski in Western CT and Southwest CT, if possible. Currently, other than local golf courses, I ski at Devils Den,...
Ralph,<br><br>What golf courses have you found to be good? I like the Litchfield CC ("behind" White Memorial) and Ricter Park in Danbury. Ricter gets tracks ...
I like the New Canaan Country Club course off Route 123? best. It gets a fair amount of skiing, so if you wait until mid-day it should be tracked. Closer to...
Ralph,<br><br>It varies although interest has been growing for the last few years.<br><br>We run one XC trip each season to Garnet Hill in NY. There is often...
Aren't those courses fairly flat? Ironically, the course in New Milford is probably the flatest golf course in the state. I like hills. The problem with skiing...
Actually, the courses are quite hilly in spots. I never thought that I would like to ski a golf course, but it's not bad for local day skiing. It's better than...

Would appreciate snow reports from around the region. We have about 4" new snow in Stamford, but it was followed by rain (as of 1pm Jan. 25). Could get more...
I skied White Memorial last weekend. Some bare spots, but given the winter we've had I was desparate : ) I imagine it should be in great shape now. If you're...
