Winter in the Lakes Region of New Hampshire brings thinner crowds and a nip in the air.  Snow wise, winters are very variable. The snow will be up to your eyes one winter and only at your ankles the next.  These photographs are some of the best we have been able to capture over the past three winters. Some contributed by Calvin Hahn. 41 photos. Click on an image to enlarge.
