We are already registered, can we get our 50/50s tomorrow? Or do we have to get them on Saturday?

You could use your cell phone and look at the weather forecast to help determine snow amounts............

just went by there,and registered,must have been 200 people on the ice,
ice looked good,2-4 inces of snow on top,so the walkers(like me)will get a workout!
parking may be a issue but we,ll see
good luck to all!!

Live Adirondack Sunset Cam
The view from the Town Park in Tupper Lake has one of the only unobstructed west-facing views in the Adirondacks allowing for amazing sunsets. Catch the best of them here.

Slow day, great time. Only 3 flags in our group of 6. No fish. Fished the back of the lake and survived the wind where we were. No door prizes and missed out on 50/50. Sold out of tickets by 12:30!!! First time ever was told. Biggest fish was just over 10lb I think. Many 3lbers won money. Snow started around 1 or so and still snowing. 4". Headed for dinner......
