Snowshoeing at High Point, NJ
Snow In Harriman
Lots of snow!
The Kakiat and R-D trails in Tuxedo were untouched when i got there, and i was trudging along the Kakiat in 1 and 1/2 to 2 feet of snow most of the way, until i reached the intersection with the White Bar Trail. It took about 2 hours to get this far. At this point, there were already snowmobile/hiker tracks, and the rest of the way on the Kakiat was like paradise compared to what i had just gone through.
The Stony Brook and Pine Meadow trails were their usual well-trodden selves, and were no problem at all. Gorgeous ice crystals along the way.
THe Reeves Brook and 7 Hills trails looked like a few people had gone on them, but not many, so if you're thinking of hiking one of these, be prepared for some strenuous snow hiking.
The visitor center is plowed, and the part of the Pine Meadow trail that goes from the visitor center towards the train station in Sloatsburg was for the most part untouched, so i had to slog my way through the snow at that point as well.
If you're heading out this weekend, have fun, but plan well, and be safe.
