Backpacking in the Adirondacks
The fall views from the Adirondacks are what postcards are made from. Spend a few days backpacking here during the fall months and you will know what it feels like to be “at one with nature.” If you are up for a challenge you can try your hand at the trail up Mount Marcy, the highest point in New York.
Don’t expect to be the only trying to reach the 5,344 foot summit of Mount Marcy though. Thousands of people try it every year. If you want a more secluded trip that offers plenty in the way of serenity, try the multi day loop that starts at the John Brook Lodge.

They offer day and twilight skiing, and the slopes are lit for nighttime skiing, which is quite fun.
