Cascade Mountain Trail to Cascade Mountain and Porter Mountain in High Peaks Wilderness
The hike along the Cascade Mountain Trail to both Cascade and Porter Mountains offers a rewarding experience with breathtaking views of the surrounding Adirondack peaks and Lake Champlain. The well-maintained trail features a gradual ascent with rocky sections that culminate in stunning panoramic vistas from the summits, making it a favorite among hikers year-round. Notably, the summit of Cascade Mountain is exposed and can be quite windy, while the slightly less popular Porter Mountain provides a unique perspective of the High Peaks region. #Hike #Mountain #Rock #Forest #Nature
