Resort or Ski Area: Ragged Mountain
Conditions: Sunny & 40. scratchy snow
Trip Report: First time visit to Ragged Mountain. Was worried about MLK weekend crowds and heard rumors that Ragged was immune to such things so we headed there for the day. Family style skiing this weekend so plan was to hit greens and blues so the kids would have a fun time.
Arrived to find parking lots pretty full but pulled the old "we're just dropping off" and snagged a spot right near the lodge. Booted up and hit the 6-pack lift. the kids had never been on a 6 pack and found it "fun" that we all got to ride together.
I don't think NH has gotten much snow in past 2 weeks since we'd been up and it showed. Trails were scratchy at best. Some scrapped off powder in spots but edges were needed. Even though it was pretty warm the snow didn't seem to soften up.
Skied with the kids and everyone had a good time. Having not been there before I can't compare crowds to what is normal but thought it was VERY crowded today. We bailed on the 6 pack for several runs and hit the triple due to the line.
