Ed and I staying at the Loj for a few days to bag some of his remaining peaks for the ADK46. Today’s target was Cliff and Redfield a rather long hike to begin with. A 7:45am start from the Loj and dinner at 6:15 we were already fighting the clock. Nice walk out to Uphill leanto and the beginning of the old trail/HP was broken out. Unfortunately only a few hundred feet in. The breaker decided to do Redfield instead. We broke out a track reaching the summit sign by 2:30 after leaving the leanto at 12:00. Back to the leanto by 4:00 and the Loj by 7:45pm for a nice 12 hr day. He’ll have to do Redfield another time. Beautiful blue sky day with plenty of sun over our heads and snow down low for our feet to push through. Thankfully the Loj staff prepped a late dinner for us including an ice cream sundae for dessert.
