the pictures are wonderful- Karl and I have now decided that we'll visit Haystack and/or Basin next weekend( working this weekend :mad: but what can you do?? you've inspired us. the GRRR must certainly have gotten you moving at the end, no matter how tired you are- but not the waty you want to...

santas :) great pics!! Karl and I met you that day ( he's the guy who was finishing his 46 then). It's nice to have names to go with the faces we remember. I love your photos- #46 and 47 are awesome- the rainfall over couchie, but it's still clear where you are - dynamite. and I have to say...

:) well, although I certainly would rather encounter pixies ( or at least deal with them), this did appear to be the work of a human. We just got a call from the ranger at Marcy Dam, saying she had found all the contents of the backpack ( Nalgene bottles, phone, and most importantly, my beloved...

no food- but it did have my lucky polartec (it did all 46 with me) and of course, Matt's phone ( I know, that was stupid)

In all my years of hiking in the ADK, I've never had anything taken. This past weekend, doing Tabletop and Phelps one of my kids friends didn't feel great, and left his pack about 20 ft up the phelps trail from the VH. I had told him, don't worry, people drop packs, water, etc. all the time...

The most beautiful marathon you can run is the Adirondack Marathon, out of Schroon Lake, in Sept. The scenery is spectacular and the energy from the crowd just great. If you get into ( and want to do NYC) do the ADK marathon as a half-marathon-it's good preparation. This marathon answers all...

new herd path for cliff Thanks for the info. Now we can look forwars to doing it. Ronni :)

Does anyone know anything about the "rumor" that the herd path for Cliff will be worked on anytime in the future, making it akin to the path for Street and Nye? I've done it, but now my husband wants to finish up his 46, and he's not relishing the long, lovely day of Redfield (which I really...

B&B in Newcomb I've stayed at aunt polly's a couple of times- it's certainly fine. There's another b&b in newcomb as well- cedar inn. I think he may be closing early this year, as the owner is an engineer, and going down to New Orleans- but it's worht calling- my husband preferred that one over...

get together NYC you can count on Karl and I!!! Have a great hiking weekend everyone

Great FinisH !!!!! :) What a great way to finish your dream- beautiful peaks, family and friends in tow. I've got the Santas and Esther to go- I hope to do the Santas this weekend with my husband. I've saved Esther for the same reason you saved Whiteface- so I can scoot over there and have...

how far do you drive I agree with steve- I live on long island- a prison sentence in and of itself- and I ( and my husband) don't think twice about the 5-6 hr drive to the ADK. I'll go up one safternoon, stay overnight, and do whatever I want the folowing day- usually get an early...

mid week ADK hikes I'm looking to do a few of those myself, and certainly would love some company. mid week can be good for me- I'm aiming for Allen real soon, and the Santas, as well. I always prefer a long, horrible day hike. I'll be doing Redfield and Cliff ( hopefully both !!!) this...
