I highly doubt that one, he lives up close to the high peaks region and coming done here to get the most southern 3ker in the ADK is real out of the way. I mentioned Indian Lake one day and he said he hates that drive.albee said:There's a chance that Peak_Bagr (Spencer) has been there, so I would say you should PM him.

This is incorrect. You will reach the parking lot on the right side of the road (Godfrey Rd) at 10.3 miles (from Northville) ... park there and the register is a short walk up the road. You could drive a short ways past the register but you'd have to turn around.
While Spencer and Brian may not have been done this specific one, they are 600-700 peaks along the way to climbing every named peak and mt on all the ADK quads.
I've done a bunch of whacks with them and know that while they may not like the drive, we all love the open woods of the Indian Lake area.
albee said:I would guess the most obvious route would be to follow the trail from the road up to "The Notch", and head northwest up the ridge. Of course, I haven't been there before, so I don't know if there are private property issues or whatnot. This is a rather vague question, so if you could explain your motivations and/or concerns it might elicit more specific advice...

Lol, you didn't know Three Ponds was the Matahorn of the southern Indian lake area!Didn't see Three Ponds Mt as any large crag
Your right on with that Alan and the enjoying the open woods of that area.Some of them are devils regardless of the height.
Actually that was my immediate thought, its stuff like that inspires. And the idea of going over maps I know we all hate.If you want to see the topos, I'm sure the boys will be happy to
show you.
