Tabletop Mountain : ADK


[Above 1] Elevation Profile, 18 December 2010, Tabletop Mountain, Adirondacks
[Above 2] Climbing Above the Weather, Tabletop Mountain, Adirondacks


[Above] Elevation Profile and Images from Tabletop Mountain,
Adirondack Park, New York State
18 December 2010

Tabletop was tough not because of the terrain, but because of our gear choices. We carried a full compliment of backcountry ice equipment and 70 meters of rope. We had originally planned on doing some self arrest training and ice practice, but the slow pace dictated by heavy packs, prevented anything but summiting and heading back. We were the last people off the Marcy trail. We hit the parking lot of the Loj in pitch darkness.

Epic Light

Love it when I stumble into epic light.

The trademarks of an upstate New York winter are typically gray on gray for months at a time. But, there are times when the colors of a winter sunset can rival those of the summer months. Tonight was one of them. Spent about an hour on the Green Island Bridge, between Troy and Green Island, shooing the sun dipping into the Hudson River. Shot about 600 images. I am really happy with the finals.

It's been a busy week and I have another corporate shoot tomorrow. Then it's off to the Adirondack backcountry to climb Tabletop Mountain on Saturday. Check back for images from the climb. Happy Holidays.

Mount Greylock : 6 December 2010

[Above and Below] Images and Elevation Profile from the summit of Mount Greylock, Adams, Massachusetts.

Over the years, I have lost count of how many times I have topped out at the Veterans Memorial. I've probably hiked Greylock around 30 times. Probably climbed it on a bike over a hundred (from both sides.) I've spent a birthday and a New Year's Eve on Greylock. Even climbed it once in the dark. I have a special affinity for that mountain. When I was younger and the world was smaller, I though of Mount Greylock as an adventure. Relevantly close to home, but with great views and steep inclines, I was always satisfied with my efforts on her trails and roads. It's been about 5 years since I have been back. Yesterday was like meeting up with an old friend. The weather in the Adirondacks has been sketchy and it was nice to have a relatively stress free hike. It's still early in the season in the ADK, so, there isn't enough ice or snow pack. Hopefully, we'll be back up there next week conditions permitting.

Sawteeth Elevation Profile

[Above] Elevation Profile from Sawteeth, Adirondacks : 8 November 2010
I loved this climb. We manged to get up there before the forecast low and winter weather moved into the valley. Snow and sleet started about an hour before we hit the final section of trail to the summit. The last 500 feet of trail consisted of mixed terrain, rock, and ice. Crampons and ice axes were required to reach the summit. Summit conditions were very windy and fogged in. I'm told that the summit of Sawteeth is one of the best views in the range. We'll have to save that for a clear day. Yesterday was a long day, but it was fun to be out in the weather. Glad that the real teeth of winter are starting to show, especially in the High Peaks. [See images above.]

Goodbye Blue Mondays



Andrew Bernstein, one of the organizers of the SPA:CX Cyclocross Races, has featured one of my images on his blog, Good Bye Blue Mondays. Andrew is a regular contributor to Embrocation Cycling Journal, Velo News (www.velonews.com), and Cyclocross Magazine (www.cxmagazine.com). SPA:CX has become one of my favorite events to photograph. To find out more about this year's race, visit spacx.blogspot.com

My last cycling shoot of the year will be at The Bethlehem Cup in Delmar on November 14th. I'm looking forward to compiling images from this year's cycling season over the next few months. I have been busy this year. From the Tour of Battenkill, multiple meets at Mount Snow, the UCI at Windham, fall cyclocross races, and various trail days, I have thousands of images to edit. There are worse things than editing images of cycling on hot summer days in the midst of the gray of February. Check www.velogothic.com for updates and more details.

Colvin Mountain :: 10.27.2010


[Above] Elevation profile for Colvin Mountain, Essex County, Adirondack Park, New York State
[Above, from Top to Bottom]

Sunset behind Gothics
Blake Mountain from the summit of Colvin Mountain

Long hike yesterday, a half marathon with backpacks to be exact. A strong low passed through the Adirondacks earlier in the week dumping a substantial amount of moisture into already wet waterlogged trail systems. The trail up Colvin was wet and bordered on a running stream in places. Our original itinerary was to include Blake Mountain too, but the trail conditions and the time of day prevented it. We walked out as the sun was setting behind the peaks of the Colvin Range and Gothics. If we had stuck to our original plan, we would have done a substantial amount of hiking under headlamps down dodgy trail conditions. Sometimes it's better to retreat.
