Closures Effective Immediately Due to
Spring Thaw "Mud Season"
Effective immediately, the New York State
Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) Region 6 is closing all
mud gates to snowmobile trails and seasonal access roads on Forest
Preserve, State Forest, and Conservation Easement lands due to spring
thaw and muddy conditions. Gate closures are expected to be completed by
Tuesday, March 29.
Motor vehicle use during the spring mud
season damages roads, resulting in road opening delays. DEC will reopen
the roads once they are dry enough to safely handle motor vehicle traffic
and necessary maintenance is completed.
