The Adirondacks looks really nice! What are your main fears regarding hikes like that?
Mostly being a complete beginner (that might even be an overstatement - I literally did 2 hikes in my entire life). So I have no understanding of anything. So planning a hike would be hard since I don’t even know how long it would take me to cover a certain distance. That’s not to mention all the other safety stuff like getting enough water or eh... whatever else is important. And how do I not get lost in the woods?! I’ll stick to marked trails and day hikes for a bit!
I feel you. Before planning my trip to Canada & Alaska, I never did too much hiking except on rare occasions. I bought a tent and an inflatable mattress for the first time 2 months before this hike after some googling. Lets say you can learn those things quite fast! If you have some questions regarding hiking, I would love to answer if I can help.
