Weekend weather saw a bit of rain along with a bit of snow, but not enough to change conditions from those reported below. There is still snow cover on all trails, but it is thin in spots. Surfaces are frozen granular, so the only skiing worth mentioning are the groomed centers that have enough snow to actually groom.
Mt. Van Hoevenberg has groomed and track-set their 4 km of competition trails where there is man-made snow plus "put some corduroy" on 4 km of the flattest Legacy trails. Cascade reports about 8 km of terrain north of the brook as skiable. Paul Smith's VIC had groomed about 9 km enough to produce a loose surface, but still warns about some this or slushy spots. The weather this week will be mostly cooler than last week, so no further loss of snow; but no significant new snow. Not finally really cooling down now until next Sunday. The best plan may just be to sharpen up the Microspikes.

Whiteface landing has the possibility of being a fun/fast ski. Lotsa snowmobile traffic from an incident yesterday.

Trail Conditions 101Trail condition reports are posted frequently during the ski season. The Adirondack backcountry can be a hard place to predict with weather and trail conditions that often change rapidly. We can't offer the same detailed descriptions of trail conditions as groomed nordic centers. Archives
