Fall Colors Trip

The Fall Colors trip for 2023 will be Friday October 3 to Sunday October 5. We have reserved the usual leanto 12 and campsites 26 and 27.


If you have never come before, we hike on Saturday and Sunday. You provide your own breakfasts and lunches. Stoves are available for cooking breakfast. Saturday’s dinner is a “catered” gourmet meal of hot cider, hot soup, Waldorf salad, steak Teriyaki, wheat pilaf, mashed squash, and dessert. Bring your own beverage for the meal, your own eating utensils, plate, cup, and bowl for the soup.

Some people who like to hike but do not camp have indicated an interest in coming but staying in a nearby motel. You can stay off site but need to make your own arrangements. To enjoy Saturday night's dinner, you will still need to bring plate, cup, and eating utensils.

Over the years we have seen nighttime temperatures from 19 to 40, daytime temperatures 30 to 75, cooler at the tops of mountains. About 1/3 of the time we get some precipitation. We have gotten as much as 3 inches of snow a few times. Be sure to pack carefully!



Driving directions to the Adirondack Loj campground are available from Google Maps. Following is a map of the campground, showing locations of leantos and camp sites.
