Adirondack Life
Ski and Snowshoe Trails in the Adirondacks
This second edition of Goodwin’s classic guidebook to winter trips is a comprehensive
collection of fifty popular and lesser-known adventures for all ability levels throughout
the park. It includes the iconic Mount Marcy and Whiteface Mountain Toll Road climbs,
as well as lesser-known trips, such as Hoffman Notch, Berrymill Flow, and Moxham
Mountain.
Goodwin, who has authored ADK’s guide to the High Peaks Trails and High Peaks Trail
map since 1984, is a well-known wilderness recreation figure in the Adirondacks. He
shares his expertise about winter adventuring in Ski and Snowshoe, the newest
addition to ADK’s authoritative catalogue of guidebooks. (The first edition came out in
2003.)
The 160-page, full-color Paperback book includes GPS coordinates for trailheads and parking
areas. It also features page map sketches by illustrator Terry Brosseau and scores of
photographs by well-known regional photographer Nancie Battaglia. Information about
winter safety, round-trip distances, and difficulty ratings for skiers and snowshoers are
all part of the package.
