About two-thirds of the climbs were
trailless "bushwhacks," making a map,
compass and altimeter the standard
tools of navigation. Many of the moun-
tains have thick spruce/balsam ter-
rain, especially al higher elevations.
The toughest, most exhilarating expe-
riences were in the Adirondack Range
of upstate New York. There is a lot of
remote wilderness.
Problems? You bet. Besides (hose
mentioned above, quite a few moun-
tains are on private property. In New
England, people are generally accept-
ing of hikers crossing their land, but
when you get inlolhe (southeast, N. Y.)
Catskills, for instance, all you see arc
"no trespassing:" signs and locked
gales. Most land owners were friendly
and cooperative when wc requested
permission, however.
Crispo is amavid four season hiker
and has attained more than .'(H) of the
highest northeast summits in the win-
ter season. He leads hikes for the Ap-
palachian Mountain Club and docs
volunteer trail work with several N.E.
Associations. His future interests in-
clude more Colorado 14,000 fl. peaks,
slate high points, and perhaps a return
to the Alps of Austria and Switzer-
land.
