Conditions 11/1/12

Bridge work on Loop 73 near Cascade X-C Ski Center, December, 2010

INTRODUCTORY REMARKS: Despite reports of blizzard conditions in West Virginia and ski resorts opening in North Carolina, the Adirondacks stayed on the mild side of Sandy - mild temps, wind, and rain at least so far.  While Columbus Day weekend and afterwards saw some snow and slippery conditions above 3,500 feet, that snow and ice has melted.  The current forecasts indicate some snow on higher summits this weekend, but no skiing and likely no need for traction aids - at least not this weekend.  Bridge work and related trail work definitely "on" for Saturday, 11/3.  Meet 9 AM at Maynard Rd., off River Rd. 0.5 mi. below the ski jumps in Lake Placid.
