The trip report

Written by KeithES · last updated by Carl on Feb 16, 2025

Thank you to Dave for inviting us for a special off-season snowshoe at MountainSide! Thirteen of us met up at noon, most from GO and as well as a couple who stay at MountainSide in the summer. We were greeted with options of ginger tea or hot chocolate by a roaring bonfire. We spent almost two hours winding our way through a breathtakingly beautiful winter landscape, including neighboring Daniels Mountain blanketed beautifully in fresh powder. After, Dave invited us into his home for sausage sandwiches, pizza, and cookies. Most of us headed out around 4pm, right as the first flakes were starting to fall. What an amazing start to the holiday weekend. Thank you so much to Dave, Brian, and Mike for having us!

About this event

Dave Herrod of MountainSide has graciously invited GayOutdoors for an afternoon of snowshoeing at beautiful MountainSide in Hinsdale, NH.  It is the weekend of Winter Carnival in Brattleboro and a perfect time to get outdoors and enjoy the season!   We will meet at noon and snowshoe for couple of hours on trails that are easy to moderate in their steepness.   After, we will order pizza and enjoy it around a fire.  The address for MountainSide will be provided for those that register.  Dave said that he does have an extra pair or two of snowshoes if someone is interested but doesn’t have their own.  Please message me if you would like to reserve a pair. 

Dave said he has a free Valentines gift for all who attend.  I hope you can join us!
