You may have heard of the Adirondack 46ers, the Saranac Laker 6ers, or the Tupper Lake Triad. Well now, St. Lawrence County is launching a hiking challenge of its own. Brooke Rouse, director of tourism for the Chamber of Commerce, says the challenge is called the Great Eight.
We decided to design the Great Eight and have multiple themes around that and launch the three at the same time so that it would really get people out across the county and on different trails.

CANTON As spring pops in the North Country, a new trail challenge invites people of all interests and abilities to explore St. Lawrence County, while earning their “Great 8 badge.”
New York’s newest trail challenge is designed to attract avid outdoors people, young families, those new to the outdoors or those with limited ability.
“Elevation is not a part of this challenge. As you experience the 8 trails in each challenge, you quickly realize that this part of New York is incredibly beautiful without the need for technical gear or extreme effort” said Brooke Rouse, Director of Tourism for the St. Lawrence County Chamber of Commerce. “The trails are diverse and an interactive trail site allows you to read about the experience before you get there, track yourself while walking and earn badges and the Great 8 Trail Challenge patch all online.”
