Reggae Fest is coming!
It’s hard to imagine there’s ever been a time without Sugarloaf’s now world famous Reggae Fest, but as it so happens a mere 25 years ago the festival premiered for the very first time. It could hardly be called a festival back then, but today it’s one of the highlights of the year, an annual event every Sugarloafer looks forward to. And thanks to the return of cold temperatures it looks like we’ll be skiing during the Fest as well, something that seemed downright unthinkable just a week ago! Reggae Fest goes from April 11-14th this year. For those of you who have never been, we’ve included a video of what you’ve been missing. For those of you all too familiar with Reggae Fest, well, enjoy the flashback. [Read more…]

Piazza Rock: WOW! BIG!!!
Long ago, when the glaciers rolled over our Mountains, carving them into the High Peaks of Maine that we enjoy so much today, giant chunks of the mountains were torn off & carried amazing distances from their origin, & came to rest in the Valleys below in massive heaps of giant boulders! A unique & very accesssible example just off the Appalachian Trail is in near-by Phillips, easy to find all year-round for a great day-trip outdoors to marvel over one of Nature’s not-so-mysterious wonders! Pack your snowshoes to follow the tracks of Andy & Carra as seen in this older footage, this winter, or remember to pack a picnic lunch & visit in the warmer months! Check it out: it’s one HUGE overhang to ponder, & it won’t cost you a cent to see it!!
