Relatively Current Conditions in the ADKs

For all you winter activity types, here's a pretty good run down of what to expect should you decide to come up to the Adirondacks to enjoy the winter. While NCPR's article focuses more on the southern and eastern side of the Adirondacks, I can tell you now that if snow is your thing, the trails and peaks in the north and west are good to go. The trail grooming crews were out the last couple weekends tending to the snowmobile trails, and there was quite the shin-dig out in Childwold over at the local watering hole, the Thristy Moose (anyone been?), to wrap up a larger effort to get the trails groomed.

Looks like we've also got good ice this year, so ice-fishing has been in full-swing since early January/late December in some spots, with increased activity out on the ice over the last couple weeks.

Also, just want to add that it's about time winter has felt like winter up here. Been a hot minute and the whole "80 degrees in December" thing was getting old.
