Cross-Country Skiing & Snowshoeing

Bobcat Loop - offering a great combination of gentle rolls and climbs for beginning snowshoers , or providing a fast-paced aerobic worker for the more experienced. (.7 km) |

Above the upper Tannery Loop crossing of Tannery Alpine exists the remains of Swanson's Sawmill, built during the 1920s. The foundation housed a steam boiler for the mill's operation. The Straight Brook and its feeder streams were dammed, providing the water supply for the boiler. Tannin, a chemical extracted from the bark of hemlock trees, was used in the tanning of leather for many years. |
