The
Adirondacks are a hard place. It's cold, windy and lonesome in the winter. Which makes it wonderful if you have the temperament for those sort of things.

XC-skiing in the Adirondacks. |
Probably because it's a
state park, it doesn't get as much attention as some of the others such as
Yellowstone and the
Smokey's. But it's plenty wild and you could get lost in a bad way if you're not careful - in a really good way if you are.
With more than
46 real mountain peaks within a days drive of more than 1/2 the country, I'm slightly surprised it doesn't get more attention. But I'm not really disappointed. It is a hard, wild place. And I like it like that. If you've been, you know what I mean and I'd love to hear your stories.
