G Lake – Aerial and Topo

G Lake is a pond at the end of the gravel G Lake Road that is a short portage or hike back from the end of the road at the wilderness boundary. Maybe not the most exciting lake, but worth checking out.

Sugar Hill – Finger Lakes Trail

Today's explorations bring me to Sugar Hill State Forest and the Finger Lakes Trail. Lots of good places to hike and camp around here. I hear equestrians and snowmobiles like it two with miles and miles of trails to do, some a bit muddy from the shallow soil and horse hooves. 

Five Ponds Wilderness – The Red Horse Trail

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.
