Cascade ski closure, Saratoga potholes, Aileen O'Donoghue

from Northern Light · host NCPR News

(Mar 17, 2026) Three years after the Adirondack Mountain Club bought the Cascade Ski Center outside of Lake Placid, its leadership put the property back on the market. Gwendolyn Craig, with the Adirondack Explorer, dives into what contributed to the breakdown of the ADK's ambitious plans; plus, before April showers bring May flowers, February snowstorms bring lots of March potholes. We'll tag along with a public works crew in Saratoga Springs that's patching them as fast as they can; and, we've got a good chance to see the aurora borealis this week! Astronomer Aileen O'Donoghue is our guide through the morning and evening skies this month.
