Anyone ever do all 46 high peaks in the ADK aka they are a 46er? I have 5 done, Algonquin, Iroquois, Marshall, Phelps, and Table Top. Looking to get all done within the next few years. In addition, I would like to do ski down as many as I can in the winter.
Also, how do you guys find girls who are into /out/ related things?

How are the ADK for short backpacking trips in terms of crowds? I live about 4-5 hours away and I wanted to go this summer, but if its just a massive cluster fuck ill stick to the 2-3 hour away Catskills

Depends on the time of year usually and where you are looking to go. It is always invariably busier on the weekends.

In the high peaks area, some of the more "famous" peaks tend to be more popular. Peaks like Marcy, Whiteface, and Algonquin see a lot of traffic.

On a lot of the less famous peaks though you can have the summit to yourself for quite some time. When I went up Marshall, Iroquois, Table Top, and Phelps I was totally alone.

Not sure about elsewhere in the ADK, really only been to the high peaks area.

I would recommend the high peaks area just because how beautiful it is. If you do go, plan on during the week (maybe like Monday-Thursday) and avoid the trails that are near the more famous peaks and you should probably find some good solitude.
