13 hours ago View from the Hurricane Mountain fire tower. The views of the Great Range and over the Champlain Valley from this peak are among the best.
2 days ago Beautiful Autumn views from the fire tower on Owl's Head Mountain. This 6 mile round-trip hike climbs 1300 feet to the summit where you are treated to spectacular views. It also counts for the ADK Fire Tower Challenge.
2 days ago We'll be hiking Rusk Mountain tomorrow morning ahead of the snow that is expected later in the day. This photo and video are from another hike of Rusk on a rainy October day. The weather improved a little during the hike and in the end we saw a lot of beauty in the wet forest. Do you sometimes hike in the rain (or snow) or always cherry pick the best days. I'd like to know what your tolerance is for inclement weather. Appreciate your comments!
3 days ago I had the privilege of meeting JR Harris ( @jrinthewilderness ) when he gave a presentation to our local ADK chapter the other night. JR was and remains a native New Yorker and outdoorsman, now with over 50 years of international trekking experience. JR doesn’t just backpack to some destination; he is a keen observer of the people, places, animals and plants he encounters along the way and his stories are riveting. His trips are often long and solo and he shares his joys and lessons learned (some the hard way) in his talks and through writing in his book,
5 days ago One more autumn view over Heart Lake. The mountains already had a coating of snow.
5 days ago Winter is coming on fast in the mountains. This was the first time on snowshoes for these groups. Great fun, smooth trails, and no bugs. Some areas are already snowshoe-able. In the highpeaks region of the Adirondacks snowshoes are required when snowdepths reach 8 inches or more. Where it is not the law, it is still strongly recommended and the neighborly thing to do when the snow builds up. Some people make a point of pride about not wearing snowshoes and they willingly go off postholing in deep snow. Maybe they wouldn’t if they understood that can ruin the experience
