Alexis and I have been hiking the lower mountain bike loop for the past couple of weeks. It is actually a nice snowshoe and cross country ski trails too. Mainly flat with some little ups and downs. It starts at the parking lot of WHP on Rt 23. It had snowed two days earlier which left around 15-16 inches of fluffy snow. The snow had already compressed and evaporated down to about 9 inches. But, it was still quite nice. We registered and then headed for the lower loop. I didn't GPS the trails any of the times we went. We had to break trail most of the way. Only the beginning was broken. Someone else had cross country skied part of the trail.
Here are a couple pictures:
