Pilot Knob

I went on a short hike near Lake George climbing Pilot Knob. There were mixed conditions in the woods with bare spots, ice, hard packed snow and soft snow. A little tricky down low with the icy spots. But, I used Stabilicers which helped a lot with traction. Howie had to make do with four-paw drive. Got to the sub-peak and stopped for a lunch break. It had clouded up considerably since the start of the hike. Headed back down and made it out safely. Howie met a beagle mix in the parking lot.

Round-trip Distance: 4.5 mi
