This trail is located in the Adirondack Mountains, and is part of the Fire Tower Challenge.
Although this hike was only 2.1 mile roundtrip, the views from the top are worth the short climb.
The trail offers varying levels of terrain, big cliff views and a series of switchbacks near the top of the mountain.
At the top there is a picnic table to enjoy a quick lunch or if you are like me, you prefer to eat your lunch in the clouds… at the top of the tower!
This fire tower is unique due to the Alidade Table. These tables were used to identify the location of any forest fires.
After enjoying my lunch, it was a quick run to the bottom, and I was off to my next adventure!
