We have so far had a few hints of spring, but as of Tuesday it's still more like winter; and after a warm up and some rain Thursday and Friday the coming weekend will again be barely above freezing. Currently, most areas have a powder or loose granular surface on a frozen granular base. Temperatures barely above freezing Tuesday and Wednesday, then warmer and rain. Next update on Friday afternoon when we know how much rain has fallen and how much new snow might fall on Friday night.
Mt. Van Hoevenberg is the only groomed center in operation. They promise to stay open (at least Wed. - Sun.) as long as skiers keep showing up. Jackrabbit Trail remains fully skiable except for the stretch along River Rd. in Lake Placid. All popular backcountry routes remain skiable, although steeper terrain not recommended unless it has warmed up or we get more snow.
