Hey everyone! I’m planning to head out to the Adirondacks from Thurs-Sun this week with my fiance and am getting a bit overwhelmed by all the areas and options. We are looking to stay in the southern portion of it (to cut down on travel time from NYC) and either want to do backpacking, rent a canoe for canoe camping, or a combination of the two. We definitely don’t want to see people and are completely good with navigating off trail using GPS and map/compass. Ideally looking at hiking about 7-8 miles/day unless we are boating.
<p style=”text-align: right;”>Does anyone have any cool backcountry locations that we could navigate to? Places with lots of wildlife? Old growth forest? Hidden remote swimming holes? 20 mile trails? Anything y’all got would be really helpful as this is my first time in this area. Thank you!</p>
