  • This week I sit down for a Summit Session with host of Jester Section Hiker Podcast, Julie "Jester" Gayheart to discuss her recent adventures here in the Adirondack Mountains. Julie is currently working on completing her second full lap of the Appalachian Trail (yes, her second lap) and made a pit stop here in the ADK to experience these mountains she's heard so much about.

    In the episode we hear all about her first impression of the ADK, as well as get into her own recent transformation following foot surgery and weight gain, and the work she put in to overcome those challenges to get back to the place she loves most- the trail.

    Inspirational doesn't do her story justice!

  • Bundle up and join us for a bone-chilling and exhilarating hike as we venture through the Macintyre Range for a winter day of subzero summitting- Algonquin, Iroquois, and Wright

    Despite the forecast of -30° windchill at the summits and a frosty start at 0°, our spirits soared under the crystalline blue skies, proving that the best winter hiking conditions often come on the coldest, sunniest days.

    You'll hear how diverse experiences—from first-timers to seasoned Adirondack 46’ers—meld on the trail, and how we navigate the biting cold with the warmth of good company and the promise of Blue Line Bakery cookies.

    Synopsis:
    Tom guides his friend Jordan to Times Square; not the one in New York City, but a small clearing deep in the Santanoni Range of the Adirondacks. From this junction, Tom waits for Jordan to complete three grueling climbs and finish New York’s most epic hiking challenge: the 46 High Peaks. As he waits for Jordan’s return, Tom experiences countless colorful characters--teens from a summer camp, a pair of former lovers, two barefoot hikers, and a man looking for his dog, among others--and points them in the right direction as they try to navigate the area’s frustrating maze of unmaintained herd paths. But literal direction is not the only aid these eccentrics need, as they try to cope with their own misery and mishaps. Times Square is a story of hilarity and heartbreak, of unity, and divergence.
