I'm probably headed up this weekend to the Marcy/Lake Arnold area. I'll let you know how it is then. I don't believe there is any snow below 3000 feet for what it's worth.

Hey Chris - as a fellow Saratoga-area native, welcome to AZ!

I'm not as plugged into the ADKs as I used to be, but if youhave any q's about the WMNF, there's a lot of expertise on this site......

Cheers!

Welcome!

I was going to also recommend VFTT for trail condition reports also but in checking over there they apparently are missing trail reports for the last several days. Last I saw was from 04/27. (I know I posted a Catskill trip there from 04/29 on 4/30 & it was not there)

Catskills are virtually snow free. For High Peaks I would expect there to be have dry trailheads mud from 2500 -3000 feet depending on type of trail & then ice & snow filling in until you get to treeline. Above treeline should be snow free but worse of it will be in trees just below treeline.

HAHA, corinth. Im sorry to admit, but my girlfriend comes from the wonderful town of Northville and i am from Galway. I climbed buck in lake george many years ago, but never black or tongue. I should probably investigate the Lake George reaon more than i do, but im more of a Indian lake, Blue mountain lake area hiker
