Owl’s Head was in beautiful shape after yesterday’s surprise nine inches, and on a bluebird day, it’s a great choice to let it rip on a bunch of nicely pitched high-speed groomers.
Sitting right alongside 24-mile-long Lake Memphrémagog, the views are stellar — it feels very similar to New York’s Finger Lakes region, but with mountains. From the “Lilly’s Leap” trail, you can look south toward Newport, VT or north to Magog, Quebec with Mont Orford in the distance.
Owl’s Head doesn’t get much visibility in internet land, but it’s a fun hill, especially on a day with storm leftovers and clear skies.
