Colden

I climbed Mount Colden in Adirondack High Peaks today with Todd and of course Howie. It was a bit nippy when we started out at 9 am from South Meadows (in the 30's). As we kept moving, it started warming up and I shed some layers. We stopped at Marcy Dam and Lake Arnold for quick breaks. It was nice and sunny upon reaching the true summit. Fall is definitely around the color. Some trees were already starting to show some color. Didn't see too many people on the trails today. Frost has killed most of the bugs ... so yay for coldness.

Summit Elevation: Colden 4715 ft
Round-trip Distance: 13.0 mi
Elevation Change: 2700 ft
