Story: HHS is one of the best, most reliable, places for cross-country skiing in Western NY. Overlooking Honeyoye Lake, it gets and retains snow better than many other spots in the Rochester-Buffalo area. It's used by local schools for training and races; some trails are groomed. Cross-country skiers are often joined by snowshoers and even mushers.
We got a bit of snow over the night of the 12th, giving about four inches of fresh fluffy. The base was sparse in the lower elevations, but on the main trails, the conditions were excellent.

Tips: Get updates on conditions at the Rochester Cross-Country Ski Foundation website; get a map here. In the early season (Nov-Dec), it's hunting season, so use caution.
