Winter has been here for a few days (since the Winter Solstice on Dec. 22) but there is not a lot of winter like conditions to talk about.  This has been a very warm Autumn with little snow and cold – the key ingredients for winter fun!  However, the local ski areas are indeed open with machine made snow and impressive trail counts considering the weather.  Gore Mt. has about 40% of their terrain open – 8 of 13 lifts and 23 of 95 trails.  Pretty good considering there has been only a few inches natural snow.  Nearby West Mt. opened yesterday, December 26th.  Until there is additional snow, snowmobiling is on hold.  Cross country skiers can venture out to a few trails open in the Lake Placid area, but local trails are still waiting for additional snowfall.  So, the best sure bet for winter fun is probably the local alpine areas – Gore and West Mt.  We have great packages for alpine skiing vacations and getaways for Gore – check them out.
