On the second day of my February vacation, Matt and I scooted on over the Adirondacks. I had been really looking forward to getting out into the mountains over break and this was a perfect day to do it. It was warm, sunny, and gorgeous! We parked at the Atmospheric Sciences Research Center and headed up the trail toward Whiteface Mountain. After a quick, steep ascent of Marble Mountain in .9 miles, we headed along the ridge toward Whiteface.
About 1.5 miles from the summit we took a side trail on the right to Mt. Esther. Esther was about a mile away and offered a view back toward Whiteface and some of the high peaks off in the distance, but otherwise it was not a very clear summit. But again, another peaked bagged.
