If you have the energy to get out and hike up into the mountains the conditions should be right for a little skiing.
Some of the best skiing can be done in the Adirondack's without waiting in lines or paying back breaking fees. Just a little stamina, some will and an explorers attitude can bring you to some of the most rewarding backcountry skiing in New York State. Follow our reports for up to date cross country and downhill ski conditions at the resorts and on the slides. Visit our website if you're looking for a guided trip into these seldom tapped areas.
The Slide Guide has now been out of publication for some time, so stay tuned into our website, hpmountainguides.com to download all the slides that were in the book.
