About Mount Marcy
New York's highest summit, deep in the Adirondack High Peaks — a 15-mile round trip from Adirondak Loj with real alpine weather on top.
Summit temperature is estimated from the Lake Placid forecast using the −6.5°C/1,000 m lapse rate. Expect much stronger wind and lower visibility on the tops, and treat the freezing level as a guide rather than a measurement.
