Current Ski Conditions
Updated: Sunday, December 29, 2024
Greetings CHN Skiers,
We are currently CLOSED
Well, the thaw is upon us. We lost 3” of our 6” of snow down here at my house on East Street (about 300’ below the CHN parking lot) so I can’t imagine that yesterday’s warmth did anything good to the trails. It did get down below freezing overnight, but that just means that whatever was soft yesterday was hard this morning.
Rain is in the forecast for later this afternoon and again overnight and into Monday when temps are expected to bump into the 50s. We will probably have to close for a short period, but hopefully we’ll get more snow Wednesday into Thursday as a coastal storm moves through. Stay tuned…

Dog Policy:
A reminder that DOGS are welcome only with canine membership. Please remember to keep your dogs under control at all times, with pooper scoopers ready for use, and take them only on the dedicated Dog Loop.
And as a reminder, season pass purchases cushion our financial situation when the snow is fickle, and the CHNSA season pass is as good a bargain as you'll find out there. CHNSA is a participant in the VSAA reciprocal pass program that gets you a free day of skiing at other areas when you have a season pass at Camel's Hump Nordic. You can purchase your season pass here.
Note: Adults (ages 13-69) can pay the $15 trail fee online! There is also wi-fi at the hut so that you can Scan-Pay-Ski by scanning the QR code at the Kiosk with your smartphone. We accept both Paypal and Venmo!
You'll receive timely conditions updates and be able to join in the online discussions with other skiers.

Please consider a Season Pass to support the all-volunteer efforts at CHNSA.
We're hoping to sign up as many season-members as possible. CHNSA really depends on your support. If you'd like to sign up, please visit our Membership Info page for details. We're also looking for volunteers to help with grooming, hut staffing, and other maintenence activities. If you're interested in helping out, please give Dave Brautigam a call at 802-735-5490.
If you would like to report on your skiing experience, please send an email to [email protected] and I'll include them. We definitely appreciate any input!
