If you are planning a trip to the Adirondacks, there is a chance that you could see a moose. DEC requests that any moose observations be reported through the Moose Sighting Report Form on DEC’s website. DEC uses this information to monitor the relative abundance and distribution of New York’s moose population and identify areas where additional population assessments may be warranted. Based on the moose sighting data compiled by DEC to date, spring moose sightings typically occur along major roadways in the central Adirondacks during the morning between 6 a.m.-9 a.m., with a secondary spike in sightings occurring in the evening around 7 p.m
