Howie and I did a hike in the Adirondack high peaks today.
It must have been opposite day as the weather up north was better than in Albany. And it's usually the other way around.
We climbed Giant mountain from the north (Rte 9N) which is a long route that not many people take since there are much shorter approaches. The trail was pretty nice though - probably from the little traffic that it sees. In some places, just a narrow foot path passing through open deciduous forests.
While coming back down we met a Canadian couple (Bonjour!) who liked Howie. Except the guy kept calling him Howlee.

What happened to the classic George stance?
Did you know that Vermount means green mountains in french.
He probaly wanted to start a new stance.
It's hard to keep Howie in frame if I strike the "George" pose.
