As a budding nature enthusiast, I’ve been growing fond of the picturesque landscapes that hiking provides. Because of this increased desire to engulf myself in Mother Nature, I wanted to experience a sunset on top of a mountain.

Buck Mountain

Buck Mountain

Located on the South East edge of Lake George, Buck Mountain trailhead begins. While most describe this as a well trafficked trail, the 15 car parking lot says otherwise.

Copperas & Owen Pond

Copperas & Owen Pond

Copperas Pond is one of thousands of small bodies of water tucked in between the beautiful mountains of the Adirondacks. The High Peaks region of the Adirondacks is home to some of the most beautiful mountains, lakes, ponds, and towns in New York.
