Mount Marcy: Adirondack State Park, New York
Standing a lofty 5,344 feet above sea level, Mt. Marcy in the northern Adirondacks is the highest peak in the state of New York. Resting wondrously like a pyramid, Marcy holds a bit of mysticism, wonder and challenge in scaling the top of this peak. But by no means is hiking to the top of Marcy a quick walk in the woods.
