FRANCONIA NOTCH, New Hampshire — Cannon Mountain is throwing its traditional winter beach party on January 13 in the Lift Pub.

Cannon Mountain will host a beach party for the kids and for the adults. The kid’s party will be outdoors with games and “beach” like activities on the slopes. The adult beach party will offer such festivities as Ski Boot Limbo, hula-hooping, and more. So while the slopes outside stay frosty, the tone indoors will be tropical. This event is free and open to the public.

Cannon offers Value Deals every Wednesday (except February 21), during which New Hampshire residents can ski or ride for $20. Other Value Deals include Twofers: on Tuesdays and Thursdays, two can ski or ride for $54. On Superbowl Sunday, the price will be two for $54.

Cannon Mountain offers 55 trails, 9 lifts, and terrain from beginner to expert. The NH Division of Parks and Recreation, part of the Department of Resources and Economic Development, manages Cannon Mountain.
