Highlights

  • John Cheney, for whom the peak is named was an 1830's guide with a reputation for being a reckless, but experienced hunter. He is distantly related to VP Dick Cheney.
  • Located in the SW High Peaks, Cheney Cobble is bounded on 3 sides by private land. The public approach is multi-day effort. Climb is rugged, summit is wooded, but ledges and other spots provide a unique view of this portion of the High Peaks.
  • Cheney Cobble is #74 of the Adirondack highest hundred peaks.
