In the second edition of the Summit Sessions I'll talk all things gear with Kenny Kendall. Kenny is a very experienced hiker and outdoorsman, who also spent over ten years as a Recon soldier in the military and has also worked in the outdoor gear industry. Needless to say, the man knows what he's talking about and loves to talk gear.
In honor of Friday the 13th this is the first edition of The 46 of 46 Campfire Story series. A spooky campfire story from the southern Adirondacks. Be careful going camping by yourself; you never know what's lurking behind your tent after dark.
In this Summit Sessions I'll speak with Joanthan Zaharek about his Single-Season Winter 46 attempt along with winter camping and why he has to complete the winter 46 in a single season.
Today I'm back on the Lower Great Range hitting Sawteeth, Pyramid, Gothics, Armstrong, Upper Wolfjaw, and Lower Wolfjaw. However some cramping may cut the day short unless I decide to push through.
Today's spontaneous weekday afternoon adventure would take me up local-favorite Owl's Head just off route 73 between Lake Placid and Keene. This trail is closed on weekends so despite the 50mph wind gusts and fresh morning snow it was as good a time as any to visit this little Adirondack gem.

Rooster Comb Mountain, located in Keene Valley, is an awesome shorter peak in the Adirondacks that boasts huge views of the valley and many High Peaks that can be hiked in just a couple of hours...or spontaneously on my drive out of town, such as today.
Big Slide Mountain, the mountain where I finished my ADK 46'er journey on. Time to revisit this majestic peak this time in sub-zero temperatures as we chase the sunrise at the summit.

Revisited- Street and Nye. In this episode I revisit Street and Nye and break down this rugged Adirondack high peaks hike into 7 sections...and I may even accidentally hurt myself yet again on this very same hike.
Part of the old Shore Owners Association (SOA) Trail system in Lake Placid, Moose Mountain is a rarely traveled ADK gem sitting taller than multiple high peaks at 3898’. A unique and mysterious mountain like no other that offers everything one could want in a rugged Adirondack hike.
This Bonus "Live From the Trail" Episode will take the listener on my Fulton Chain Trifecta journey start to finish as I experienced it on the trail with the story being told solely from audio recorded on the trail. Rocky Mountain, Black Bear Mountain, Bald Mountain.Music from Audionautix- www.audionautix.com
The Fulton Chain Trifecta is an Adirondack hiking challenge based in the Old Forge region of the Western Adirondacks consisting of Rocky Mountain, Black Bear Mountain, and Bald Mountain. A great challenge made up of smaller peaks in the region with excellent views of the nearby lakes and mountains. Since I was coincidentally working in Old Forge for a few days I had my hiking gear with me and was able to hit the trail before work to complete this challenge...cutting it pretty close to missing work altogether.Music from Audionautix- www.audionautix.com
Bonus Episode. This "Live From the Trail" episode is told exclusively via audio I recorded while I was on the trail.
