🌸 Wildflowers in Full Bloom

Here comes June—and with it, Vermont’s peak wildflower season. Take some time to slow down and smell the flowers like lupines, daisies, black-eyed Susans, and buttercups. These beautiful blooms can often be found in meadows and along roadsides throughout the region. At Smuggs, the Green Mountain lushness is in full effect. Our deciduous forests are fully leafed out, creating that thick natural canopy we all cherish as the summer sun starts to shine a little stronger.

🦌 Wildlife on the Move

With all the new life blossoming, local wildlife is active and out exploring. Birds are calling, mammals are foraging, and amphibians are hopping around in the damp corners of our landscape. Be sure to keep your eyes open, especially in the early morning or later in the day—prime time for nature spotting here in the Notch.

🦟 A Word About Bugs

Yes, the bugs are back! Be sure to pack your bug spray and wear light-colored, loose-fitting clothes to stay comfortable outdoors. If you need supplies, you can stop by the Country Store or 3 Mountain Outfitters—we’ve got a great selection of insect repellent and lightweight layers to keep your adventures itch-free.

☀️ A Perfect Time for Outdoor Play

June’s weather in Vermont is truly outstanding. It’s often a bit cooler than later summer, making it a great time to get out and enjoy all that Smuggs and the surrounding area have to offer. Whether you’re into:

• Hiking through forest trails
• Going for a scenic bike ride
• Playing a round of disc golf
• Or fishing in a nearby lake, pond, or river

…it’s a great season to be outside.

📅 Events & Summer Programming

With longer days and warmer temps, outdoor activities are only getting better—and so is our schedule of events. Keep an eye on the calendar for exciting happenings around the Resort and in the surrounding community as we head toward the start of our full summer programming lineup beginning June 13!
