Table Top Mountain , NY
Date: 06/30/2006
Persons in Group: Brian.
Weather Conditions: 65 degrees, light rain, low clouds.
Route: Van Hoevenburg Trail, through Marcy Dam, and up the Table Top Herd Path. Back the same way.
Notes: I got to the Loj around 7:45 AM, and hit the trail in the rain. The Van Hoevenburg trail was muddy in places, but nothing compared to the Table Top herdpath., which was very muddy. I reached the summit of Table Top at about 10:30, and was back down to my truck around 1PM. On my way down, it actually cleared up and there were some views. #13 on the 46er list for me.
My path for the day, starting at the ADK Loj. You can see the waypoints for Marcy Dam, as well as the start of the Table Top herd path.
A view of Colden from the dam, it actually cleared up on the way down.
A picture of the Table Top Summit sign. You can see where the canister used to hang below it.
Some views west on the way down.
More views of the way down.
