Old Forge, NY Report

The temps have dropped back down below freezing and everything is firming back up. But we will need some new snow, in my book, to bring things back into shape for riding. I had the trali cam on for about 20 minutes and only saw three sleds go past it.

Here's Todays Video......

  10. If I were all of you I would rip up my permits, put my sled away and go South.
    This way when we get the snow I can ride without a bunch of crybabies.
    This has happened before so veterns somowmobilers know it it will snow and we will ride.

  12. No crap! Shhhhhh.....please don't cry here.

    Like it's life changing money $65 trail permit, $25 club membership and $45 to the State....

    $110 per extra sled

    Not to mention late Jan. and all of Feb. will surely offer great conditions and 3-4 days of quality riding days more than make the small investment well worth it. Now I could see getting a little pissed in the good, long seasons when they skimp a bit on the grooming due to low funds. I would think years like this make up for those and they should be up that money for the seasons more work is required.

    Wish we could see one of those soon. Maybe next year???

  20. Looks like I was off by a couple days but if all goes well over the next week next Tues. 1/17 looks like the real start to the season. I see 12-14 inches of good fresh snow coming in the next 72 hours and VERY cold temps over this weekend :)

    Thank God - Finally
