What to do......
 
Visitors coming this weekend to ski......I think not! Need a back up plan for parents and a 16yr old. Indoor activities around the lake?

Thanks!

Its winter....bundle up and ski. Probably be short lift lines at Gunstock, you'll get your moneys worth. Sixteen years old.......he/she probably waits at the bus stop with a t-shirt on. If its too cold at the top of the Mt, go tubing

We just got back from Gunstock. It was cold but cover up your face and you will be golden!
My 7 & 11 year old skiied all day with no complaints!
Go for it!!

I was going to type "go see the primary candidates speak" but thankfully, they have left us for warmer climes. :)

Maybe a campfire and s'mores night?

Cold forcast
 
They are expecting 40 below windchill factors Saturday afternoon into Sunday. They say frostbite can occur in 10 - 15 minutes. It will be really cold on the mountain!!

Loon Center
 
The Loon Center in Moultonboro is open year round.

wind chill chart.

Here's the chart...do your own figuring. It can happen rather quickly. When I was stationed in Alaska, temps lower than 5-10 below were definite cause for concern for frostbite, and below zero, always wore gloves. You could leave skin from your hand on a door know without gloves. With the forecasted temps, this artic weather survivor would say stay home. For what it is worth, the ski area at Eielson shut down at -20, and they wouldn't let you on the slope if you were not properly attired for the temps.
