Needed Sleeping Beauty and Erebus to complete the Lake George 12ster list. Got a little bit of a later start, but drove all the way to Dacy Clearing now that the road is open. There were lots of cars, but I didn't see any people until the end of the day on my way to the parking lot. Trail to Sleeping Beauty is easy to follow and pretty straight forward, bushwhacked off trail to the true summit, only to be disappointed that the summit sign had been stolen (Lame!). Continued on the trail down to Bump's Pond. From there I took Erebus trail towards the north slope before quickly making my way off trail and just hiking up towards the summit. Took me a little while to find the true summit, only to be disappointed once again that someone had stolen the summit sign. (Lame again!). The fun started on my descent when I decided to bushwhack towards the Fishbrook Pond Trail with hopes of intersecting it close to Bump's Pond, which would have taken out a lot of the steep sections. I didn't bring an actual map (bad idea!), but I did have a screen shot of the map that showed the trails in the area and I did have a compass. I ended up in a drainage area and found the trail right at Fishbrook Pond. Ended up not being so bad, but I did experience some thick brush and some soggy areas. After finding the trail, I made my way back to Dacy Clearing without any issues.
