Snowmobiling Conditions: Update 2/27/13
To say the least, this has been an unusual storm. Snowfall reports in the Indian Lake/Speculator/Piseco corridor were mainly in the 6-8 inch range by 10PM this evening.

Indian Lake Ride Report: Update 2/25/13

In other words: The snow is tired! While picking up dinner in town, I ran into Charlie Clark and his wife from […]
