Bog River Flow ... in the fall ... Mrs. kwc threading the needle ... remnants of a Great Camp ... most of it was torn down by NYS DEC sunset on Tupper Lake (not too far from the Bog River Flow ...

I have a few TR's which I'll try to catch up on. This trip was last winter (Jan., 2017) and it's not all that fresh in my mind anymore, so I'll keep it pretty brief. This was a weekend trip that I took up to the High Peaks region of the northern Adirondacks, NY with my buddy Craig. Despite...

A fun 24 hour trip on the new section of trail. Thanks for watching.

Come along with me and spend 3 days, 2 nights in the 5 Ponds Wilderness Area of the Adirondacks. The weather was perfect, 70's and sunny with lows in the mid 40's and the leaves were at peak color. The view atop Cat Mountain took my breath away! This is the first trip where I have been...
