Wow,
How are the trails in NY anyway, I never been riding there? I guess I didn't hear about the storm but my sled is put away for winter anyway. I am anzious to take out the sportsman!
The trail system is extensive, covering hundreds of miles throughout the Adirondack region. Most are well marked, main corridor trails. Secondaries are just as plentiful, and as big as highways. All of the trails are well maintained and groomed regularly. This is a very rustic region - out in the middle of nowhere - rural roads and small-town inns. For the most part, it's a vacation/tourist area. Camping in the summer, snowmobiling in the winter. Nothing much else up there. Sweet trails (but I've never really been anywhere else to give an objective comparison). Seasoned travellers could better compare the NY trails to other areas.
Spent last weekend on some secondary trails in the lower part of the system (Pulaski area). Didn't want to have to trailer too far, so we stuck to the closer trails. Plenty of snow in most areas. Sides of roads were bare, so crossing bridges and streets was less than optimal. It's really the end of the season here. so not many riders were out. Only passed three others on the trails in the four or so hours we were out. Lost count of the deer - they were everywhere!!! Stopped several times just to watch them.
