"Hiked with Tom. We started out at the Loj and made our way out to Tabletop. We saw a good amount of people on our way down. The weather was ok all day, but was kind of cold at the summit due to the wind. Overall, a nice hike. " — Kim-Stilson • Jan 2, 2021
"Hiked with Kim. Main trail was well packed. Herd path to Tabletop was unconsolidated, but there was only about 6" of snow total. Cold on the summit, but overall a pretty decent day. No views from the summit. " — LGH-Tom • Jan 2, 2021
"Tom and I helping Kathryn in getting 3 more peaks for her 46R quest. Great day with beautiful weather. We spent nearly an hour on Phelps taking in the grand view, a first for Kathryn and Tom as his first ascent involved cloudy/wet weather. Kathryn excitedly realized that of the most of peaks, one can easily see from Phelps, she has done(34/46)." — Nimblefoot • Sep 19, 2020

"Tabletop and Phelps with Jeff and Meenu: We started out at 2 am Sunday and got to the trailhead a little before 6. It was a gorgeous day, slightly cool to start, and I wore my long sleeves for a good part of the hike (although I was plenty warm). Surprisingly ran into running friend Lori and her husband at the trailhead and saw them again coming down from the summit. The trail from the Loj is starting to seem familiar. We went past Marcy Dam and took the trail to Tabletop first. I wasn’t expecting much from Tabletop but I thought the views were great. We summited at almost exactly 3 hours in. After spending a little time enjoying the view and refueling we headed back down and took the short detour to visit Indian Falls, which was a beautiful lookout over some nice falls. Back down to the junction and we headed up Phelps. This was a bit steeper with a few boulders to climb but not bad. I was in the lead or much of it and trying to keep a steady pace even though I was a little tired at this point, and Meenu thought we were rushing her a bit (“do we have an appointment up there?”) . The views on Phelps were incredible. Seeing so many of the surrounding high peaks and beyond. I can r..." — kvander • Aug 16, 2020

"Hiked our first 46er in the winter. With my daughter. Warm day, little snow and rain at times, but still much fun. 7 hours total trip. Bit of a slog at times - snowshoes and crampons." — suzannerunciman • Jan 11, 2020
"After yesterday’s 19 mile trek of Skylight and Marcy the three knuckleheads chose to do an easier out and back of Tabletop and Phelps. The Van Hoe trail seemed to be a bit drier and the water level in the brooks receded overnight. What started out as a blue sky sunny day, begging for shorts and t-shirt to be worn, turned to overcast by noon. On Phelps, our second peak, light rain and strong wind was added to the mix. After taking in the diminished view we retreated into the trees to be more comfortable for our late lunch. Earlier in the day we got a fine view near the summit of Tabletop after making our way through the mud and water hazards on the herd path." — Nimblefoot • Oct 24, 2019

"Was a beautiful sunny morning at the summits of Phelps and Tabletop Mountains from the LOJ trail Via Marcy Dam,, Trails were well packed and the views on both summits were amazing,, Found Tabletop a might bit of a slog but with a little determination made it to the summit for my very first Solo winter 46ers,, Excellent Day!" — ramjet1963 • Mar 2, 2019

"This was another fantastic day for this hike. It was cold and sunny in the morning. We had heard that Tabletop was a muddy trail, so we took advantage of the cold weather and the presence of snow to do it.We had let ourselves been told that the view at the top was not that great. We were actually surprised on how nice it was. Maybe it was because of the cold weather and snow. Still we had an amazing day.We returned just in time before the sunset.Oh yes, we also made a detour to Indian Falls.Once again, the Adirondacks offer the best views. My wife Brigitte Doyon and I will remember this hike for a long time.https://www.alltrails.com/explore/recording/tabletop-indian-falls" — CPaquin • Nov 11, 2017

"Solo. First High peaks post-back injury/surgery. Camped out at South Meadows. Out of climbing shape due to muscle loss. Still made it. harder on my legs than it was on my back." — ndru-virus • Aug 27, 2017

"Second high peak of the day, and what a muddy boggy mess !! The last section of "trail" at the top was about 12in deep in thick sloppy mud in parts. We pushed on and grabbed #7 in our quest for the 46ers. A great day to be in the mountains Today, weather was awesome, views amazing. 7/46." — HikingViking • Jul 29, 2017
