Adirondack Peaks

Following is a list of the 100 highest peaks in Adirondack Park. The 46 peaks marked with an asterisk (*) are those originally measured to be above 4,000 feet by early surveys (the original "High Peaks"); more recent surveys by the USGS have declared the elevations of four of these peaks to be below 4,000 feet. These marked 46 are still those that must be climbed for membership in the Adirondack Forty-Sixers, however. A small cannister has been placed on each summit to which there is no maintained trail, in which a logbook can be found. Traditionally, climbers attempting to climb all 46 peaks were expected to register their climb in the logbook. Recently, however, the Forty-Sixers dropped this requirement in an effort to keep hikers from destroying fragile summit vegetation by wandering around in search of the cannister.
