I have heard of people hiking these three mountains in a one-day loop, in 10 &#8211; 12 hours, which seems feasible. However, I like to spend a little time at the top of the mountains, and really enjoy being in the outdoors, <b>unplugged from my life<\/b> for a few days at a time. So rather than rushing out before the sun sets, we are planning on making this an overnight, two-day trip.<br \/>\nWe will be heading up north on Sunday morning, towards the Loj at Heart Lake. We plan on hiking most of the morning\/afternoon,<b> making camp somewhere along the trail<\/b>, and continuing our journey Monday morning.<\/p>\n<p>I haven&#8217;t looked at a map yet so I am unsure of the route we will be taking. I am hoping for some feedback from any readers that may have hiked this loop in the past as I have a few questions:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><i>In what order should the peaks be climbed?<\/i> As we will have at least a day and a half, we can be flexible with the route we choose.<\/li>\n<li><i>Are there any lean-tos along the trail? Or campsites?<\/i> (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.adirondack.net\/dacks\/2011\/06\/new-tent\/\">I now have a tent<\/a>)<\/li>\n<li><i>Are there any mountain streams or ponds along the route that we might be able to camp near?<\/i> If so, I will certainly bring some fishing gear and <b>try to catch dinner<\/b> once we make camp.<\/li>\n<li>If this will be relatively easy to hike through in two days, <i>should we try to summit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adirondack.net\/hiking\/high-peaks\/\">another peak<\/a> while we&#8217;re in the woods? If so, where should we extend our loop to?<\/i><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you have advice or recommendations for any of these questions, please let us know. The more information we have, the better! I will also be stopping in at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adk.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Adirondack Mountain Club<\/a> at some point next week to see what advice they can offer.<\/p>\n<p>I am really looking forward to this, <b>my first real backpacking trip<\/b> in the Adirondacks (it&#8217;s a short stay, I know). I&#8217;ll be sure to follow up with a <b>detailed trip report<\/b> when I get back to civilization.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am planning a hike for next week up Algonquin, Iroquois, and Wright peaks.
