A Labor Day weekend trip to Colvin and Blake peaks via the Gill Brook Trail and Lake Road. The hike featured moderate terrain with some rocky scrambles and ladders on both peaks, with good views from Colvin but a viewless summit on Blake. A second ascent of Colvin on the return proved physically demanding.

A popular short hike to a scenic waterfall in the Adirondacks with views of the High Peaks. The lower falls section is very easy with dipping pools, while the upper falls route requires more care and involves some stream-bed scrambling. Parking is extremely limited and competition for spaces is intense in peak season.
