Easy Street (Blue) is a cross-country ski route in northern New York, about 0.6 miles from the town of Paul Smiths. It's a short, easy outing, with a total round-trip distance of about 0.34 miles and a climb of 54 feet from the low point at 1,633 feet to the high at 1,649 feet. Winter is the natural season for this route. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show January highs around 25°F with lows near 2°F, while July and August run in the mid-70s. That station sits at nearly the same elevation as the trail, so the figures are a fair guide to conditions here. Several other cross-country ski routes lie just steps away, including Huneycutt, Wood & Waters Trail (Red) and Silvi Trail (Blue), each about 0.1 mile off. Logger's Loop (Olive) is about 0.2 mile away.
