It was a new bridge... then...

What is not "proper" is to endanger the bridge by walking on the legally closed bridge just as did the individual on the picture immediately below! The rest of the route to Allen Mt. is completely legal.

Absolutely and furthermore if while "trespassing" what is left of the structure collapses into the river, never mind the climber may shortly pass under the Brooklyn Bridge but it will as well destroy any chance of having a bridge at that location for decades if not ever!

Please note bridge is still officially closed and the 46R will certainly ponder not recognizing an Allen climb via an illegal route no matter how short! http://www.adk46r.org/2011/12/allen-mt-warning-regarding-bridge-over-the-hudson-river/

Well, the two rescued overnighters blamed the wind! I wonder too if not having cell phones would make climbers more careful or if only those incidents would have had more dramatic ending?

Published today a few more details here: http://www.adirondackdailyenterprise.com/page/content.detail/id/529484/Survivor-recounts-night-on-Marcy.html?nav=5008

I was on Marcy this past Saturday. I noted again climbers alone or in groups just go for the summit without taking in their surroundings and certainly not even thinking for a split second about the immediate future or paying much attention to their companions. Once above tree line it’s every man...

Thanks Phil, it reminds us all that above tree line not only visibility can go from clear to nil from one minute to the next but that a group should act as one. One can only imagine how are feeling today the other members of that Marcy climb!

The Ausable River flows from the Upper Lake into the Lower Lake (one mile), then there are several springs and drainages flowing along the shore of the Lower Lake from the slopes of Colvin and Sawteeth. This February as I could see on my way to Allen Mt this past Wednesday rivers, brooks and...

It may have changed but I have been told recently (Friday 10) that due to the unusally warm days and nights of late the south end of the Lower Lake is not safe everywhere, furthermore I understood the Carry Trail is not broken.
