Lower Wolfjaw -- Upper Wolfjaw -- Armstrong -- Gothics

Great 46er loop to knock off some peaks and won’t take an experienced hiker too long: LWJ—>UWJ—>Armstrong—>Gothics. Roughly 15 miles, 5,000+ feet of elevation gain.

Mount Colden

Mount Colden

Colden, the 11th highest peak in the ADKs, and home to the exhilarating Trap Dike section. One of the most difficult, dangerous and exciting climb sections in the ADKs.

Cascade Mountain and Porter Mountain

Cascade Mountain and Porter Mountain

Cascade, perched up in my favorite region of New York, the beautiful Adirondacks, was the first of the "46 High Peaks" that I climbed. It's a great hike for those who want to take a first stab at a High Peak in the ADKs and one that doesn't take too much time.
