Ski tour of Boutwell Hill State Forest planned Saturday

The group will depart the Ruttenbur Road parking lot at 10 a.m. in the Town of Charlotte. Skiers of all ages and abilities are welcome. Those who don’t like skiing alone and have never skied the trails, can have their chance. Arrive by 9:45 for a brief orientation. The ski will last about an hour.
