Feb 12, 2021 with temperatures around the region expected to drop below zero and wind chill in parts of the Adirondacks potentially around -20 degrees. One way to get a hike in when it s this cold? Stay at lower altitudes. Emily Russell snowshoed out along the shores of a frozen lake near Saranac Lake and sent this postcard.

Jan 22, 2021 Winter has finally arrived in the North Country, with fresh snow across much of the region. Emily Russell recently hiked up Black Mountain in Washington County, one of the wildest places near Lake George. She sent us this audio postcard.

It’s bright and cold as I set off. The start of the hike takes me along what looks like an old ranger road. Right now it’s completely frozen. The trail is like a sheet of ice, so I’ve got my microspikes on and I’m moving pretty easily over it.
