The Valentine’s Day Storm plowed through the southern Adirondacks early in the week. We arrived in North River after the storm, and it was a great time to be there. Initially we had trouble getting to the cabin as our plow guy certainly had his hands full. We measured 40 inches, and walking the 500 feet to our camp from the road in waist high snow took 20 minutes the first time. In addition, power outages led to plumbing issues.
Sat 2/17 was the first time I can remember the mountain turning people away because of lack of parking, and still I never felt remotely close to crowded on the trails or in the trees.
