The lat time I was at Mount Philo, it's ice covered trails are exactly what convinced me to get ice spikes. This time the trails were clear even though it was around 40 degrees. A visiting friend an I took Sal up the trails for some fun.
The trail we took lead us around the base of the cliffs that make up most of Mount Philo. It wove in and out of the rocks.
Sal as always enjoyed some rock climbing while waiting for us to catch up.
And he found a small cave.
It was a really cool area, the cedar trees jutted out of the cliff above.
At the base there were little rock piles made out of the fallen debris by the hikers. This one was the coolest by far.
At the top was the usually beautiful view with the Adirondacks spread out below.
There were a couple of people at the top enjoying the view.
It is not summer yet but it was a great day for this short hike, afterwards we decided to travel over to Button Bay because it was too nice to head home.
