These
trips are for you if an
extended Adirondack experience
is what you're looking for!
The
Adirondack Park has much to offer the backcountry enthusiast... sweeping
mountain views, beautiful waterfalls, refreshing lakes, streams &
ponds, alpine environments, exposed summits & slides, abundant
wildlife, seclusion... It's a rather rugged yet incredibly beautiful area!
Sounds of the wild will surround you. Reflections will astound you.
Peacefulness will fill you.
