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.

Old Forge Report

Well with the warm weather over night and not dropping like first forecasted things are getting softer fast. There are still a few die hards out riding but I think even those few are giving up the ship in hopes of the return to winter soon. You will see in yesterdays video that there was some good and then some ugly. But I would think that most is getting ugly with the warmth of today.

Old Forge Trail Report

I really don't like it when it's like this! Life is much easier when you can tell people the riding is great, get your butt up here so I can pay the bills or it SUCKS stay home. Just like beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so are riding conditions. I have some guests in now that think the riding is good. Come to find out they haven't been riding in this area of the state before and compared to the area they do ride in, it is great.

5Pm update. It sounds like the warmth of today made things soft late today. Let's hope the it drops back down below freezing tonight and firms things back up for tomorrow.

11PM Update. Well they changed to forecast again and the low of 25 for tonight has been raised to 31. Tomorrows mid 30's is now 38 and maybe light R in the morning. Please refer to the first sentence of todays post onhow I feel about this.

Here's today video....sorry it's so late.

Old Forge Report

I've been getting allot of calls from people wanting to know if they should come up to ride or not. All I can tell you it's the best it's been this season so far. The report from the town is up to a 4" base in fair condition. Will it hold over the weekend? Your guess is good as anyones. It all depends on the temps, how many people show up this weekend and will the people that do come to the area respect the limited snow conditions that we have. I know the trail crews are out packing and with the temps we had last night the trails are sure to be getting hard.
