Pinnacle Creek Campout, Shaker Mountain Wild Forest

I met up with DuctTape Russ and 12trysomething Rob over the weekend

for a leisurely camping trip at an old hunters' campsite along Pinnacle Creek

in the southern Adirondacks. Russ & Rob headed up on Friday, and Jenny & I

arrived on Saturday morning. There was still some snow, but snowshoes

were not needed. Temps were pretty warm, and one stream crossing

was a little tricky with all the melting snow and rain late last week. Thankfully,

It only rained on us after we turned in on Saturday evening, and the rain ended

when we woke up on Sunday morning. DuctTape and I (& Jenny) took a day hike

up to County Line Lake while Rob elected to hold down the fort. There was a little

more snow higher up, but again most of the trail was snow free.

All in all it was a great trip with great company!
