snow in the Gunks?
|
Got a report of 8 inches in the western Catskills. |
|
Local reports suggest about 4 inches on the Ridge. |
|
Thanks -- |

Currently 5" in New Paltz. For future reference: |
|
Dang I was hoping to go climb today. DO you think it will be clear by Friday? I have never been up to the Gunks before and it's about a 3 hour drive. |
|
Some snow on the ground doesn't mean every climb will be spoiled/seeping/wet. It just means you'll need to assess each climb from the bottom to determine if you can go up it. |
|
People are climbing today, and were yesterday. It's sunny today, perfect for climbing unless(like me) you don't touch metal when the temps go below 50). |
|
Today was gorgeous. No snow, no seeping, no problem! |
|
Any current conditions updates? Headed home to visit family in central NY tomorrow and wondering if I should bring the tricams along. . |
|
Heavy rain all day today (Tues.) with the same expected tomorrow. |
|
Going to head up there tomorrow for some bouldering. Can someone give me an update of conditions please. Thanks! |
|
should be perfect bouldering weather tomorrow. A few flurries today, not accumulating. We have about 5" of old snow on the ground, but, the rocks are mostly snow free. |

I'm not expecting much,i f anything, but I'd thought I'd ask if there's any snow on the groundLimited skiing at the moment (it rained a bit yesterday). EDIT - apparently the area didn't get as much rain as I initially thought |
|
Does anyone have an update on conditions? Has the rock dried yet? I'm hoping to get out Sunday. |
|
Climbed rock 3 days ago. Cold, but mostly dry, with some wet streaks here and there. Carriage road was a bumpy ice sheet, so wear some micro spikes for the approach. |
|
We heard lots of people were getting out for skiing over Xmas + New Years, but now Mohonk Mountain House reports |
|
Over a half inch of warm rain yesterday. |
|
Anyone have an update on the conditions? I'm not super familiar with the Gunks, but I'll be in the area this Sunday and would love to get on something easy (preferably without snow on every hold). |
|
55 degrees here yesterday. No snow left. |
|
Anyone have any opinion on if it'll be dry enough to climb tomorrow (assuming the snow I am watching in NYC right now does not move north)? |
|
Any update on snow? Not sure weather Monday will be a hiking day or a climbing day in new paltz. |
