After getting COVID at the end of 2024 and sleeping through much of the holiday season, 🛌 it's good to be up and back at my game again. It's cold and dark this time of year, 🥶 but I figure focus on learning and working, while counting down the days until Punxsy sees or does not see his shadow. 🐻

Red Horse Trail [Expires January 23 2024]

The Red Horse Trail in the southern Five Ponds Wilderness of the Adirondacks is a historic, challenging trail dating back to 1922. Spanning five miles from Big Burnt Lake to Clear Lake, it features serene lakes, old-growth forests, and wetland boardwalks. Divided into three sections, the trail's remoteness and limited access, primarily by boat, preserve its wilderness character. Highlights include Salmon Lake, Witchhopple Lake, and Clear Lake, with a mix of challenging and level terrain. The trail offers opportunities for camping, canoeing, and kayaking, providing a genuine wilderness experience away from more frequented Adirondack trails.
