Some cold weather and snow has made for some possible skiing on the Whiteface Highway. Due to this weekend's work on the Jackrabbit Trail we're a bit behind in reporting the first skiing, but what is possible is only of interest to the true "die-hards", and you have probably figured out the possibilities on your own.
Anyway, here is what is there as of Sunday afternoon: Some "slideable" on one shoulder of the road starting about 1/2 mile up. Then something closer to "skiable" after the pump house at about 2 miles.
This week will remain cool with additional snow showers through Wednesday, but then warming up before next weekend. We'll check on conditions as of this coming Friday, but we don't expect any significant improvement.
Otherwise, up to six inches of snow at higher elevations in the High Peaks. Tractions aids now very helpful, and be prepared for near-winter conditions on the higher summits.
