Winter Conditions Prevail 2/9/21

2/9/2021

We are now enjoying about the longest stretch of powder conditions most of us can remember. And these conditions continue through the rest of the week and into the coming weekend. Temperatures will be cold starting on Friday with highs only around 10, and warming only to highs around 15 through the weekend and on Monday, Washington's Birthday. So, look at the earlier report for the current trail conditions. Beyond the trails already reported as broken out, recent experience out on the trails indicates that most all popular routes have been skied. So, get out and take advantage of the skiing that we have.

Trail Conditions 101

Trail 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.

Always plan ahead for your outing, be prepared with proper clothing, equipment, maps and emergency supplies, and check local weather conditions as well before departing on your trip.

Maps - don't leave home with them!

For trails in the High Peaks Wilderness area, we recommend purchasing the High Peaks Adirondack Trail Map from the Adirondack Mountain Club.

For trails outside of the High Peaks area, we recommend purchasing the Lake Placid & Saranac Lake Winter Trails Map from Green Goat Maps, which covers the Jackrabbit Ski Trail and other adjacent ski touring opportunities.
