current Whiteface Highway conditions

MaximusFunk24 · 02-07-2016, 06:42 PM

was wondering if anyone has been up the Whiteface toll road recently? I was planning on going tomorrow and was hoping for enough snow cover to use my rock skis at least most of the way.

Right now the Whiteface Highway would not be skiable for long stretches. We are supposed to pick up 2-3 inches by tomorrow morning, which is enough to make if just barely skiable unless it is also windy. In that case, the light new snow will likely be blown off many of the turns.

Anyone have any recent updates on the road? We're at Whiteface downhill skiing today and would like to xc ski up the road tomorrow. I was gonna go drive over to the toll house later to see how it is there but was wondering if anyone knew how it was higher up. Thanks!

Update from 2/20, bring your ice skates if you're planning on going to the toll road. Road is completely covered with ice. We skied up the ditch (the only place there is snow) on the left side maybe 1/4 mile before calling it quits.
