We were there on 1-12-13 Saturday and it was still beautiful although the snow was starting to melt off the trees and drip all over us. Still, a lovely hike. Like your pics.

That's it!!! After watching that video I think I will shuck away all fears and give it a try. I think I might be missing out on WAY too much FUN! Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful in winter. These are my only New York peaks to date and I did them in Late May 2009. I guess I need to get back there to the Adirondacks! Maybe this summer. We'll see. Great pics by the way.

Yes- water, clothing, car keys, watch, water purification of sorts probably a good idea though I imagine you could live without it a few days if you had to (the purification that is, not the water) . Extra food-more important in winter to help you stay warm and have energy. Otherwise one can...

You can always splint the frame of your snowshoe with a branch and duct tape if you don't have anything else. The duct tape can be used for so many different things that I won't go anywhere without it. It can replace a-lot of things in my pack and 1st aid kit. I wrap my duct tape around my lip...

Nice read and I loved the pics. Sounds like you all had an epic and successful hike. Good for you all. Congrats

These are the first 2 NY summits I have completed. It was a fun hike in late May. I loved the views and bald ledges of Cascade and the trail over to Porter and it's teasing views along the top were nice. I will have to get back into New York for some more summits.
