October and already the leaves are fading away in the Adirondacks. πŸ‚ Most shocking to me is that we are less then a month away from November, which in many ways should be a sigh of relief with the craziness of work and with the deep blue skies and crisp days of that month.

Camping Along Hope Falls Road

It has been a few years since I've camped back along Hope Falls Road, north of Spectulator but it was a nice change to go somewhere in the Adirondacks different. Hiked back to Tenant Creek Falls twice during the weekend, and then out to Wilcox Lake. East Stoney Creek had a decent amount of water for cooling off in it but the currents were pretty strong.

Wilcox Lake

Last weekend on Saturday I hiked back to Wilcox Lake and spend some time sitting back there. It was about a 12 mile round trip from camp, so it was a nice hike, quiet down along the East Stoney Creek.
