Moose Snowmobile Trail Reports for Friday, March 7, 2025

March has arrived and the snowmobiling season continues on across Central and Northern New York.

It is that time of year… despite an absolutely incredible snowmobiling season, now is the time when folks seriously need to start considering the fact that trail conditions can change on a day-to-day basis.

After a week’s worth of mild weather and rainfall, temperatures are expected to trend more on the cooler side for the weekend.

A few inches of fresh snowfall were observed throughout the Central and Northern New York area on Friday.

Compared to a couple of weeks ago, there is certainly a noticeable decrease in the snowpack, but there is still quite a bit of snow left to go.

Considering that this season has certainly been second to none, snowmobilers are certainly going to start noticing the spring like conditions on the trails, but riding should be enjoyable for the most part this weekend.

Here are some of the latest reports we’ve gathered from around the local area:
