I love solo adventures, but there’s nothing like sharing favorite places with family. Ma finally visited Lake Tear of the Clouds, and The Rev climbed Marcy. Creek-side fine dining with scotch and chocolate nightcaps like they taught me how. Story for Mountain online.
Beginning in January, I helped pioneer the “Got Mountains?” department for Simply Lake Placid magazine, a new publication that showcases life in New York’s Adirondack High Peaks region. Awesome opportunity. I shared some hiking intel and camping how-to and researched the science behind Adirondack slides. And of course, I couldn’t not write about pie.
The inaugural issue dropped last week. Check it out:
