Peaked Mtn. Pond and

Peaked Mt. Pond,  located near Indian lake.  Thirteen pond trailhead.

I've made the trek north to get away from the masses and stresses of the southern state.   Had some time yesterday to hike so I got on Bing Maps and looked for my most promising pin point.  I've been dreaming about hiking Peaked Mt. pond for months now.   The rock shown on the map is very impressive.  Tons of definite huge blocks, waiting, untouched.  Peaked mtn pond is very close to Indian lake, so I was hoping by some miracle the rock was featured like snowy.   Not the case.   Hiked in one hour on a nice trail, then wandered around for five minutes and sure enough was greeted by giants abound.  Boulders ha, I mean huge, house size and overhanging on all sides.  My psyched quickly turned to disappointment,  not one of them had any resemblance of a hold.  Even if there where holds they soon ran out to sections of fifteen to twenty feet  blankness.  If one, just one, of the hundred blocks was well featured it would be worth the hour hike in it's self.  No worries, none of them are!  Sad, sad story this Adk park is,  I'm losing hope that there's still good new stuff out there.  So many days of hiking with nothing to show but choss and blank walls.  Somebody tell me I'm wrong please, better yet, show me!

The chill is in the air and I'm deeting on it!

Baxter Mountain Disappointment ...

Hiked up Baxter last weekend and can say that the rocks I found are both dirty, and poorly featured. I didn't stray far from the trail to find more rock but from what I saw, the holds didn't look like they had much potential.

Only a few moves "yeah another kiPpY special" but fun and powerful.

Project: I cleaned this a few weeks ago and am really amped up to see it go. Beyond what I am currently capable of so come do it and love it! Jut had great work for it and figured out some good beta.

























This is a bad ass problem. Big moves, big slopers, small crimps and big fun.

Jut also sent a sweet variation to Dementor. Check out his blog for a vid (not up yet but...)  Pretty sick send.

This unfamiliar, 3,300 ft. peak has great views of the Dix Mountain
Wilderness. See waterfalls, a wild, steep-sided pass, scenic overlooks, and an interesting boulder-field along the way. Approximately
10 miles (half of it trail-less), 2,500 ft. ascent, at a moderate,
unrushed pace
