Winter 46ers


Hikers who have climbed the 46 peaks in Winter (December 21-March 21) and recorded the ascents will receive Winter Recognition and be entitled to wear the "Winter 46-R" rocker patch.  Only those who are in excellent physical condition, properly equipped and skilled in winter techniques, should attempt this, as winter climbing can be exhausting and demanding. It helps when winter hiking, to be familiar with the peaks, the weather, the hazards and to climb with a group of experienced winter hikers. A good place to start is by attending the ADK 's Winter Mountaineering School. 

 

As of 7/08 there were 400 RECORDED Winter 46ers.
