USA: Northeast, Away for the Holidays, Skiing, Sledding and Skating.
One thing is certain New England will have snow for the holidays made by Mother Nature and replenished by man. With the crisp air and the quieting white drifts families will find a full line up of snowy winter adventures. From Alpine skiing and snowboarding to sledding and tubing the slopes will be active. The snow blanketed valleys will frame trails for cross-country skiing, snowshoeing and snowmobiling. Sleigh rides, ice-skating stargazing increase the ways to enjoy the winter season. I almost forgot gingerbread and hot chocolate by a cozy fire.
