Avenue is a short, flat cross-country ski route in the Pemigewasset Ranger District of White Mountain National Forest in New Hampshire. The out-and-back trip is about 0.38 miles long, with a high point of 1,623 feet and a low of 1,610 feet. The climb is nearly flat, with a total gain and loss of about 21 feet each way, and the route is rated easy. Winter is the natural season for this ski route. Typical averages from the nearby Pinkham Notch weather station show January highs around 26°F and lows near 6°F, while July highs reach about 75°F. That station sits roughly 400 feet lower than the route, so temperatures on Avenue run a little cooler. Zealand Pass and Crawford's Pass both lie about 0.1 mile away, making it easy to link them into a longer outing. Omni Mount Washington Resort, Bretton Woods, offers lake fishing about 1.8 miles off, and Nauman Tentsite is a campground about 3.5 miles away.
