The Gates Are Open! The Gates Are Open!

For roughly six months out of the year — from the first significant snow storm until the end of mud season, the gates to many of the most popular roads in the Adirondacks are closed to prevent idiots from getting stuck, and to keep the backcountry roads from getting too torn up.

Yet, that season has come to an end. Mud season is now just history. Okay, maybe the roads are somewhat sloppy from recent rains, but at least now the opening of the gates marks the start of Adirondack Summer 2012.

So many adventures are ahead. So many summer time memories to be created as we proceed through summer. Most places in the park now are open, with so many chances to get away and freely explore whereever and whenever we want.
