When I’m not at work I love to get outside. The fall foliage is peaking right now in upstate New York and I was lucky enough to hike through 25 spectacular miles of it over three days in the High Peaks Wilderness of the Adirondacks. The weather was perfect for climbing atop Iroquois Peak and Algonquin Peak, the latter of which is the second tallest point in New York State. The Adirondacks are close to Canada but aren’t too difficult to get to from NYC. Amtrak goes to Albany and you can rent a car at the train station from which it’s only a two hour drive. The park extends over a huge area with hundreds of trails so there’s really something for everyone. Get out there 🍁
