Lantern Ski

  • Raven Lodge, Mount Washington Alpine Resort (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Come join us for a Lantern Ski beginning at the Raven Lodge at Mt Washington on Saturday January 20 from 5:00 to 6:30 pm. This is a fun family-themed cross country ski event open to all Mount Washington guests where you ski a short loop, in the dark, following lanterns set on the side of the ski trails. Skiers are encouraged to dress up for the event - maybe even including lights! Enjoy hot chocolate by the Raven Lodge!

There is a $5.00 registration fee required for those who require a trail pass. Season-pass holders join for free. All participants should wear a headlamp as the lanterns may not provide enough light to see the ski trails clearly.
 
Please note that only the Raven Lodge lower level will be open for this event for washrooms and rental equipment.
