High Peaks of the Northeast

High Peaks of the Northeast: A Peakbagger's Directory and Resource Guide to the Highest Summits in the Northeastern United States | Bruce Scofield

A day late, but here is my #WednesdayWanderings post!! My husband and I love to hike and most of our vacations center around doing so, although we are day hikers, not backpackers haha We visited the Lake Placid region back in 2016 and climbed Algonquin Peak. It's not a terribly long hike, but these are photos of the TRAIL - so much of it was just scrambling up rocks! Which meant coming down was just as hard as going up. I would like to say that ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) we got a payoff in a beautiful views, but actually the fog closed in the higher we climbed, so our view was not great 😂 It really became more of a stubbornness thing - we were SO determined to conquer this one!! Every once in a while you take a hike that actually changes you as a person, and this was one of those for us haha

TheAromaofBooks PS Have to say the best part is there was a peak ranger at the top hanging out to make sure people were in trouble and said he climbs the mountain every day that he's on duty, so usually 4-5 times a week. He must have legs of IRON!!! 😂 3mo

AllDebooks Love this. ❤️ Wow, that ranger myst be at peak fitness!! 3mo
