Comments
Comments: Started down Old Mittersill Road from Mittetsill Inn, old road is on right past inn,street sign reads Mittetsill Road and is right after first large home. It is well skied. When old road joins Franconia Village Nordic trails, I went left on Fiji and followed it to Tucker Brook and went left past sign that reads Hardwood Heaven. I am no stranger to the trail and was surprised it wasn't skied out. Top of 13 turns is rutted out but the rest of the route is great skiing. Upper Taft was windy and icy and I had a difficult time getting up it, skins need snow to work. Did more side stepping than I would have liked. $9 uphill ticket required to access Cannon summit. Nice morning in the woods. Cannon ski area busy.
