trips - Seward Range (NY ADKs) Winter Peak Bagging EffortTrip Info
DescriptionOK, I know this is rather short notice but that seems to be the way I have to schedule my trips. I want to do a "Winter" peak bagging trip of some of the ADK's 4k'ers, and Sunday March 20 is the first day of Spring. Therefore, I technically have until then to do this trip. Been thiking of heading out Wed night (16th) and crashing in van, driving in and hiking to camp on Thurs (17th), hitting Seymour (4120') then moving camp to Calkin's Brook on Fri (18th), then doing Seward (4361'), Donaldson (4140')and Emmons (4040') on Sat (19th),and (maybe) move closer to the vehicle, then heading out and drive home on Sun (20th). Turns out, Calkin's Brook is the most used route to the range, so disregard trail descriptions in your AMC High Peaks Region regarding summiting this range from any other location. I'll bail (yeah, right) on the plans ONLY IF I don't have anyone to hike with. I don't mind soloing, but in Winter would be stupid (to say the least) to go alone. Here's some info fer yer head...
