Our Great National Playground

May 20th, 2009 · 1 Comment · Adirondack Life

The Adirondacks - Our Great National Playground Memorial Weekend is the traditional beginning of our Summer travel season here in the Adirondacks.

It’s not like we will be overrun, but most popular trailheads will be packed.

Plan ahead, check the Current Conditions, and consider hiking trails outside the High Peaks Area. Stay Safe – maybe I’ll see ya out there!
