This 3800' high mountain is located southwest of Indian Lake in the Adirondacks. The out and back RT hike is 6.4 miles total with 1650+- elevation gain. There is not a lot of elevation gain for the first 2+- miles of the ascent but the last mile is steep. There is a tall firetower offering excellent views of the West Canada Lakes Wilderness Area as well as the high peaks in the distance. You must be in excellent physical condition and hiking on a regular basis to participate. THIS IS NOT FOR BEGINNERS. Dress for the weather in non-cotton layers and wear hiking boots. Bring microspikes, snowshoes ?water, lunch, snacks, and carpool $. No dogs please. Meet at Exit 9 Clifton Park P and R at 630am to carpool .Pit stop at Indian Lake Stewarts on way to trailhead. We can stop for food on the way home for those interested. We should be back to P and R mid evening but if you have plans for the evening I would not sign up for the hike. By attending you agree that You are responsible for yourself and are hiking at your own risk. Forecasted rain/snow? postpones the outing. My cell 5185773566 if needed.
