New Year’s in the Mountains: Adirondacks 46er – Phelps, with transportation

**PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS A PRE-PAY ONLY EVENT** Please read carefully: This event is being hosted by Adventure Untamed (https://www.adventureuntamed.com/trip/new-years-in-the-mountains-adirondacks-46er-phelps/). **Please register directly through the website**. **You spot will only be held once you register and pay through the Adventure Untamed website.** **Transportation, lodging, food, and licensed guides are included in the cost of the trip. All you have to do is show up!** This has become an annual tradition for Adventure Untamed! As we enter a new year, we get together, drive to the heart of the largest park in the contiguous United States – Adirondacks – and climb a 46er. 46ers are 46 high peaks of the Adirondacks, each over 4,000 feet tall. We ring in the new year with mountain climbing, games, and great company! Oh, and did we mention a really cozy lodge (actual picture of the lodge above)? So, how do you plan to say hello to 2027? How do you ***want*** to greet the new year? Join us on this beautiful adventure! Our journey will take us on a gorgeous hike of Phelps Mountain. If you are looking for winter scenery, this is the hike for you. The approach goes through forest trails then opens up at Marcy Dam where you are surrounded by high peaks on all sides. At the summit you will find a beautiful, open rock ledge with panoramic views of the Adirondack High Peaks. You will see Mount Marcy, Mount Colden, the Great and MacIntyre Ranges, and on a clear day, views for miles. It’s a flat-ish start for the first two miles, then a steady climb for the next two and a half to the summit. The hike will feel anywhere between INTERMEDIATE and CHALLENGING, depending on your experience and conditions. But we plan to keep the pace very moderate, to allow for an enjoyable day. If you can do a Catskill 3500 mountain, you can do this peak (as long as the weather cooperates, of course)! We’ll also provide micro spikes, crampons, and/or snowshoes, so you don’t have to worry about traction. And the view from the top is worth the effort! On a clear day, we will be able to see countless mountains in the High Peaks region. When not hiking, we’ll spend our nights in front of the fireplace at the Adirondack Loj, relaxing and enjoying board games and great conversation. **Experience**: Prior winter hiking experience strongly encouraged. Please email us if you don’t have winter hiking experience. Please contact us with any questions at [info@adventureuntamed.com](mailto:info@adventureuntamed.com). We can help you put together a training plan! This trip is rated INTERMEDIATE due to easier pace, but it may feel more challenging depending on conditions. This trip has CHALLENGING terrain and (sometimes) conditions. **Accommodations**: Shared (with our group) loft room at ADK Loj. Limited private rooms available for an extra $100 per night. Please email us at [info@adventureuntamed.com](mailto:info@adventureuntamed.com) with questions and requests. **Food:** We will have lunch on the road the first day and the last day. Other than that, all meals are included. **Day 1 (January 1)** We’ll depart at 7:00 am, stopping for lunch on the road. After arriving at the Loj we’ll go for a short warm-up hike. On the trail, we’ll discuss winter hiking and layering techniques to set us up for success the next day. After a moderate scramble to the top, gorgeous views of the Adirondacks will open up right in front of us. That evening we’ll enjoy a tasty dinner and and get ready for our climb. **Day 2 (January 2)** After a hearty breakfast, we’ll start the summit attempt of Phelps Mountain. We’ll take our time on the trail and make consistent, steady progress, admiring the views. That night, we’ll relax in front of the fire after a delicious dinner! **Day 3 (January 3)** After a good night’s rest, we’ll pack and relax for the leisurely drive back to New York City, stopping for lunch along the way. For those interested, we’ll do a short morning hike to ring in the new year! [Cancellation Policies](https://www.adventureuntamed.com/info/?tab=2) If you don’t have a piece of gear, please reach out.

Wednesday night scrimmages

**PLEASE SIGN UP AT LEAST 48 HOURS IN ADVANCE!** We will need to cancel sessions that do not have at least 6 people signed up. (But also, try not to change your RSVP with less than 48 hours notice, as we will lose money or waste expensive pool time if we cancel late or have too few people show up.) We'll warm up with some drills, and then split up into teams for some games. Wednesday nights are shorter, and if you're a new paddler, this will be a tricky session for a proper introduction to kayak polo. But if you want to join and have some paddling experience, send a message to the host to see if this session will work for you. While first-timers can try out a session for free, after that you will either need to join the club (seasonal and annual membership rates) or pay the $25 single-session fee.

Poconos retreat: Various Nature and Rejuvenation activities

Beginner-friendly Kayak Polo

**PLEASE SIGN UP AT LEAST 48 HOURS IN ADVANCE!** We will need to cancel sessions that do not have at least 6 people signed up. (But also, try not to change your RSVP with less than 48 hours notice, as we will lose money or waste expensive pool time if we cancel late or have too few people show up.) This session will be a good opportunity to get introduced to the sport. We have all the gear you will need, so just bring shorts and a shirt that you will be comfortable swimming in. Low-profile water shoes will also help protect and pad your feet inside the boat. If you have not played with us before, expect to learn/demonstrate how to safely exit your boat when it is capsized. (Or show off your roll if you’ve got it!) Either way, you will get wet :) We will start setting up the pool at 3pm, so arrive a bit before then to change in the locker room beforehand. Play needs to stop by around 5:15, so that we can clean up and exit the building by 6pm. You can try one session for free. After that, if you have not paid season/annual club dues, the single-session event fee is $25.

8 miles 3 borough beer run🍺 🏃🏻‍♀️

We have done this event many times. The goal is to hit 6 bars within the span of 8 hours. We usually get a nice group of people to hit all the bars. It is a super fun event. We usually get a beer at place and hang out there for 30 minutes to an hour and then proceed to run to the next stop. If you don't run you can walk the entire thing or crawl if you want :) It is a super fun way to drink beer. About a mile of beer is pint in calories of beer so you run and regain those calories with a pint. We repeat this 6 times. But again you can run the whole thing! It's a great workout with beer. The plan is to meet at Gregory Coffee on Madison and 52nd St at 12:30 and start running at 12:45 from there towards the The Jeffrey Craft & Beer. Map of the course: https://maps.app.goo.gl/6JrKRLNdZYLXFfN57 Here is the schedule: 12:30 Gregory Coffee - 485 Madison Ave 12:45 Run from Gregory Coffee to the Jeffrey Craft & Beer - 0.8 miles 13h00 Arrive at Jeffrey Craft & Beer - 311 E 60th St !4h00 Leave Jeffrey Craft & Beer and run towards Fifth Hammer in LIC - 2.3 miles 14h30 Arrive at Fifth Hammer Brewing - 10-28 46th Ave, Long Island City 15H30 Leave Fifth Hammer and run towards Brouwerij Lane - 1.5 miles 15h50 Arrive at Brouwerij Lane - 78 Greenpoint Ave, Brooklyn 17h00 Leave Brouwerij Lane and run towards Sprintzenhaus - 0.8 miles !7h10 Arrive at Spritzenhaus - 33 Nassau Ave 18h20 Leave Spritzenhaus and run towards Haab - 1 mile 18h35 Arrive at Haab - 202 Leonard St - Haab has beer and burritos so this is also a food stop. 19h45 Leave Haab and run towards our final destination Pine Box Rock Shop 0.8 miles 20h00 Arrive at Pine Box Rock Shop - 12 Grattan St
