SOGA (Cabin 4) - Giant Mountain


SOGA got an early start on Thursday and hiked one of the hardest mountains we do up here, Giant Mountain. It is not challenging because of the length -- the round trip is about 6 miles. It is most challenging because when you hike up those three miles, it is straight up! These guys rose to the challenge, which included hiking over 3,000 ft. of elevation in three miles; which is equivalent to climbing 300 floors of stairs! The summit of Giant lies at 4,627 ft and it is the 12th highest peak in NY State, one of the steepest hikes in the Adirondacks. The entire cabin worked together to get up and down the mountain safely and were quite tired when they arrived at camp for their dinner.

Enjoy the pictures here!
