ADKS: how much snow fell??

Planning a trip for Monday. Any relevant info is GREATLY appreciated.

Check "Trail Conditions"

Once the snow falls, I am a regular reader of this section, both for hard info and for the interesting mini trip reports.

There's some new stuff under New York: http://www.vftt.org/trail/ny/index.html.

Only a few inches (2-4) at the lower elevations, I can't say for sure about the higher elevations, but I'd guess double that. However, it was VERY windy over the weekend and a lot of the snow was blown around so you will likely find lots of bare spots and others deeply drifted. Oh, and you will find lots of ice. It was warm Friday and Saturday with rain and lots of melting, then it turned sharply colder on Sunday so everything is now frozen.

What five_head stated I observed up there yesterday. There will likely be alot of wind drifts at the upper elevations as the winds were blowing hard all day yesterday (Sunday) with wind gusts up into the 30's (mph).

You can expect there to be a little powder with pretty much no base below it at the lower elevations and ALOT of ice due to the rain. The rivers were high on Sunday due to all the rain and meltoff.
