Special Thanks

  The Hazen's Notch Association is very grateful to all of our cooperating landowners whose generosity allows over 40 miles of trails to remain open to the public on 2,500 acres of private land.  Thank you !

Group Visits

  Please note that while the HNA Trails are open to the public at no charge in the summer, a fee is charged for groups. This includes school, home school, church or other community groups. This includes both non-profit and for-profit groups and whether your visit is self-directed or facilitated by HNA staff.

  There are many costs associated with the management of trails that are open to the public. Group use fees and membership contributions help the HNA office to meet these expenses. Please contact the HNA office to arrange your group visit.   Thank you.

The Hazen's Notch Association in Montgomery is at the gateway to the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont.

The HNA is a Member of the Trout River Network.

   The National Weather Service established two cooperative observer snow depth reporting stations in Hazen's Notch in March 2006. Two stations on Burnt Mountain have been designated as official snow depth reporting stations.

   The first snow depth reporting station in Hazen's Notch is at the junction of the Notch Trail and the Upper Burnt Mountain Trail. The elevation of this station is 1,535 feet.

   The second snow depth reporting station in Hazen's Notch is at the junction of the Upper Burnt Mountain Trail and the Sunset Ridge Trail. The elevation of this station is 2,345 feet.

   Official snow depth measurements in Hazen's Notch are taken every other Wednesday through the winter season. Measurements include the average snow depth at the site and the water equivalent of the core sample.

   Snow depth and water equivalent measurements for Hazen's Notch are sent to the National Weather Service at Burlington, Vermont. The National Weather Service (NWS) compiles the reports from Hazen's Notch with reports from around Vermont.

   This information is used by the National Weather Service and the Northeast River Forecast Center (NERFC) to forecast river water levels throughout New England based on regional snow depth information and short and long term weather forecasts.
