Wright Peak

On November 18th, 2015, I completed a solo summit from the ADK Loj. The hike was beautiful and a relative walk in the woods until the last mile and a half or so before the summit of Wright Peak. Even at this point, the trail had become coated in ice but micro spikes served as sufficient traction. During the last 0.4 miles of ascent, the trail became a scramble up an absolutely ice encrusted terrain, during which I regretted not bringing crampons and an ice ax. I had noticed the wind picking up during this time. Upon emerging from the treeline, I was struck by the force of wind. Traveling from the treeline to the summit, approximately 300 yards by my rough estimate, took a full hour. During this time, I scrambled and still fell during outstanding gusts. I am an experienced backpacker with over 150 nights of camping, a frequent rock climber, and a collegiate rugby player, but the power of this wind was incredible. This was only my 3rd time peak bagging, but that's probably obvious since I had not checked the weather at the peak. This peak, as I learned later, has a reputation as one of the windiest 46ers. Enjoy the ride.

Algonquin Peak

Hiked to summit on Wednesday, Nov.21. Virtually no wind even at summit. Trail is very icy for long stretches approaching tree-line. We all had micro-spikes, challenging going up, more challenging coming down. Wished we'd a had a climbing rope for rappelling down one rather lengthy stretch, would have been easier than hugging the trees along with edge. A great and rewarding hike/climb.

Mount Marcy

We hiked Mt. Marcy on Oct. 11-12, 2021. The weather was low 40's at night and 60's by the afternoon. The wind was manageable. We had no rain so the conditions were perfect. The sky was clear. The trail was still muddy but never impassable. In fact, my shoes barely got wet from the planks and rock hopping We were able to claim the last available legal camping site about 1 mile past the lean-tos at Mt. Marcy dam. This gave us about a 8 mile round trip hike on Tuesday, Oct. 12th. As I look at the mountain weather forecast this week, I see that we probably caught the last good week of the season. The weather on Monday, Oct. 18th is 23-25 degrees F. all day with a chill factor of 7 F. at night.

The hike is worth it in these great conditions. I would not have enjoyed any rain or low wind chill.

My hiking buddy is 67 and I am 69. We are active and in pretty good shape.

Enjoy your climbing.

Mount Skylight

Just completed the hike starting at the LOJ this was one of the hardest hikes I've done. There is a constant rise to Lake Arnald from 2200 to 3800 ft, with an immediate climb down about 1000ft. Some what easy hiking till you make the ascend to Lake Tear of the clouds about 1000ft in 1.5 miles. Take note at the spiral glyf on the giant rock up there. Heading to the 4 corners is straight forward then a 600ft jump in 0.5miles to the summit.

Its a difficult climb start to finish, but the veiws are worth it. Round trip took me about 15hrs.
