Bear Notch Ski Touring Center

Reviewed By VBoy31 - Auburn, United States

We snowshoed at Bear Notch three days ago and had an amazing experience. The trails were groomed to perfection and we were met by a staffer who was knowledgeable and attentive. We spent about three hours on the trails and really enjoyed the trails by the river. An added bonus was when we happened upon a moose, quietly munching on some local vegetation. We shoed quietly by and got some incredible photos. Just get out and experience the outdoors, folks. Getting your feet snowy is a great way to spend the day!

Ripley Falls

Reviewed By ColleenC974

Ripley Falls is at the end of a half mile hike in through trees and rocks. It is a great workout, as you are climbing both up and down throughout the hike, but it is beautiful in among the trees, and you can hear the water almost the whole way. The end result is a fantastic waterfall coming down a sheer rock wall. My husband and I really lucked out in that almost our entire time there, we were the only ones on the path, and we had the waterfall to ourselves for a while. Definitely worth the time.

Mother nature was not kind to the ski mountains in early January this year, but our 2 days snowboarding at Attitash were still awesome. They clearly have skilled snowmakers and are dedicated to creating a great experience even without the help of natural snow. We heard snow is in the forecast this week tho, so we'll be back in a few weeks!

Living Shores Aquarium

Reviewed By annabanana245 - Norridgewock, United States

We recently visited Living Shores aquarium. While it is quite small, my 8 year old daughter absolutely loved it. The nibble fish and touch tank were a huge hit. The aviary was also fun to visit. The highlight of our visit was feeding the rays. It was a great experience for my daughter. All the staff were so nice and helpful, but I would especially like to recognize the woman who gave the talk about the rays then helped the kids feed them. She was awesome!! I believe her name is Naomi. She was so knowledgeable about the animals and so great with the kids. She definitely is the reason our visit was five star worthy!
