Colvin & Blake | Hiking in the Adirondack High Peaks | Aspiring 46ers

Published 2020-12-03
Continuing their journey to become Adirondack 46ers, the guys get together and hike Mount Colvin & Blake Peak in mid-October. The weather was perfect - even if it was a bit windy - and the views were amazing!!

    That's nuts you drive to the trail head so early and yet there is no place to park. Dan is an animal! I can't imagine how many times he will earn his 46r in his life time. It is great to have friends like this. No matter how many times he has done it, he is willing to do it again. I hope you guys show John the same love!

  • @ALORDW
    "Swampy, over boulders and vertical" I agree with Dan completely and why I prefer not to try climbing the peaks. Love watching you guys though!

    colvin was actually my first 46er at 9 years old... i finished on colden 4 years later.. what an incredible journey and iā€™m so glad to have found your channel! p.s. i did some trail work with ATIS on the gill brook trail / indian head - it is indeed very pretty
  • @greytroop9272
    Im new to your channel and love the content. Me and my wife want to complete the adk 46 soon
  • @Snitchols
    Glad to see your son made it out with you all. That little ladder going up Colvin was not there when I did it. Although a small summit, Colvin was one of my favorite because of the views. I'd rather do Allen again than Blake. I'd love to hit Fish Hawk Cliffs and Indian Head with you if you're open to it.

    Thanks for the vid! I did Colvin & Blake earlier this year, and agree with all of your assessments (i.e., Colvin good, Blake not so much). According to one of the ADK Facebook pages I believe someone took the little "Blake" stone off the summit. He felt it violated the Leave No Trace philosophy. Personally I think that's a bit of a jerk move because, as you suggest, the Blake summit isn't exactly easily identifiable. Hope to see you guys on the trail someday!
  • Thanks for your channel. I avoid the high peaks region due to ā€œcongestionā€ of hikers.
  • Nice job, Colvinā€™s view is amazing. Blake and Colvin are near and dear to me. We hit those before Dial and Nippletop to finish my 46er. Keep plugging away, you are almost there. Any winter 46ers planned?
  • @UnlikelyHiker
    I donā€™t recall a ladder on the top of Colvin...I recall barely being able to pull myself up lol. But it was 5 years ago. I think I will finish my winter round on Blake. I wonder if anyone has done that. I mean itā€™s pretty much worse than Cooch...lol
