Esther Mountain
Adirondack Park, NY
About this hike
Esther Mountain is often paired with nearby Whiteface and is known for being the only 46er named after a woman—Esther McComb, who summited at 15. The summit is wooded, but the trail provides glimpses of views. It’s a good choice for a less strenuous day or a double-peak outing.
