Latest Conditions Jan 16, 2014
There is still plenty of skiing – and surprising good cover in many areas. So, trail counts and surface quality will improve with even small amounts of new snow. Lake Placid has recorded 2″ of new snow and Mt. Van Hovenberg will reopen tomorrow on some of the flatter terrain. Further to the South Garnet Hill is open with some new snow (1″+). Much the same with Lapland Lake (2″) and Osceola. This makes a huge difference in the skiing – again with good base cover – some nice skiing is on tap for MLK Weekend.
