Bottom Line - Too little ot too much
The new snow has been heavy and wet, especially in the Village. Grooming has continued, however the warmer temperatures allow conditions to deteriorate quickly between grooming runs. Perkins Clearing and the Tree Farm are still great.
PS: Don't forget to write your letters to the DEC!

Bottom Line - The trails this past week have been better than expected each time
Grooming has continued, but at a slower pace than normal. Grooming isn't as effective with the used up snow on hard trails in the village and narrow trails get snirty during that day, an inch or so at night helps as it's groomed in. Perkins Clearing and the Tree Farm are still great. Grooming continues.

Jessup River Wild Forest UMP 2010 Amendment
The recently issued amendment 2010 draft amendment to the 2005/2006 Jessup River Wild Forest Unit Management Plan has a number of signifigant negative changes. NYSSA is very concerned that the are trail closures that are unnecessary under the guidelines and as a result will isolate users and businesses who have historically had access to the trail system. The amendment should have leveraged the Class I Trail guidelines to preserve access by residents, visitors and businesses.
Your calls, e-mails, and letters are needed to preserve trail access to all snowmobilers.
If you utitlize the example letter, it is critical that you personalize, edit and add your own comments on this matter for your letter to count.
