With winter right around the corner, NorthWoods is pleased to announce a new partnership with the Vermont Backcountry Alliance — a working group of the Catamount Trail Association (CTA) dedicated to advancing responsible backcountry skiing and snowboarding in Vermont. With a strong tradition of nordic and backcountry skiing programs, NorthWoods will lend its northern perspective to this emerging group and help raise awareness for backcountry management issues across the northern tier of Vermont. For more information, visit www.vtbc.org and stay tuned for news on up-coming winter programs at NorthWoods.
On Thursday, Nov 6th in Rochester, VT, at the Pierce Hall Community Center (38 S.Main St.), the Vermont Backcountry Alliance (VTBC), which is a new program of the Catamount Trail Association (CTA), and the Rochester Area Sports Trails Alliance (RASTA) will be co-hosting the 2nd Annual VT Backcountry Forum (& Celebration). We hope you can join us for some great discussion and brainstorming around VT’s backcountry future, and to celebrate the coming winter season. The event is free, and proceeds will directly support the responsible management of new bc skiing/riding zones in Rochester, VT area.
