Thrill Seekers and Nature Lovers Looking for A Fun Ride


Don't know what to do or how to enjoy the fantastic white mountains? Are you a thrill seeker looking for something fun and exciting to do? I have the perfect solution for you. A great way to both enjoy the white mountains beautiful views and have a memorable experience is to take a canopy tour at Bretton Woods in Twin Mountain, New Hampshire. You not only get to have an incredible experience, but you are able to soar in and above the trees taking in the surrounding views. Looking to the sides you are able to take in the scenery or even look below you to watch for some wildlife. You never know what deer or moose may be out for a nature walk below you! The tour guides there are fantastic and make you feel comfortable and safe. They give you directions and demonstrations so you know what you're doing before getting out there. It is the perfect way to spend a few hours and I highly recommend it to anyone who is interested.

I have done the canopy tour there and it was so much fun! It was a little rainy and cloudy, but still was a blast and I can't wait to go again! Despite the weather, you still could see the Mount Washington Hotel and part of the Cog Railway.


Standing up on the giant platforms in the tree tops you feel on top of the world. When you get to sit back and take off out across the canopy you feel like you're flying because in a way you really are. If you're up in the white mountains area or thinking about coming up to this area, I would definitely consider planning a trip to visit this fun attraction.


Want a sneak peek of what the tour is like, watch the short video below.

Memorial Day Weekend


This weekend kicks off the first big weekend for the camping season! Come enjoy the White Mountains in northern New Hampshire to both relax and have some fun! Whether you want to do some hiking or even go to some of the White Mountain attractions such as the Hobo Railroad or the Flume. There’s plenty of things to do in the area and even if the weather isn’t so great, you can always stay and relax at the campground and go for a swim in the indoor heated pool. On site at the campground there is also other amenities offered for the whole family to enjoy such as giant chess and checkers, volley ball, horseshoes, shuffle board, and more.

In the area there is plenty of hiking for all ages and all levels of expertise. Mount Willard being at 2,840 feet in elevation is in Crawford Notch is only a short 10 minute drive east of the campground and is a shorter and easier hike, but it still offers great views.


 Feeling like seeing some waterfalls, there are those around here too. Arethusa Falls is also located in Crawford Notch and is a spectacular waterfall especially after it has recently rained. The waterfall is approximately 140 feet tall and about 1.6 miles from the parking area off of route 302. The trail to Arethusa Falls is tougher in comparison to Mount Willard because it is steeper, so if hiking there be careful with your footing. 

Finally, enjoy the weekend and I would also like to give a huge thank you to all the men and women who have and are serving our country! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
