Quick Getaway to Evangeline and Another Overnight to the Sacandaga

 The weather was looking crappy, so our 3 day backpacking plan into Cranberry Lake was put on hold. We opted for an easy overnight to a lean-to along the FLT which Andy has been too often. This would be my first time to the Evangeline.

Steep uphill. Rainy all afternoon. We had a fire. Cooked some steak and hung out. 



Another quick overnight to the Simaese Ponds Wilderness with Justin. Another rainy weekend. We met at the 11th Mtn trailhead. Put on our rain gear and hiked the few miles to the Sacandaga River lean-to. There was a couple camped at a nearby tent site.

We spent the afternoon gathering wood and hanging out by the fire. The couple nearby came by to chat for a bit. they were spending a long vacation in the Adirondacks and were looking for good places to see moose.
