The vertical and mileage estimates,
although accounted to the foot or tenth of a mile, are still
estimates with limited accuracy. The estimates are taken from
the Adirondack Mountain Club's (ADK's) Guide to Adiondack Trails: High
Peaks Region: Twelfth Edition. Herd paths are estimated from
the ADK's map. However, no two people or guidebooks arrive at
the same estimates for the same routes. On these peaks, an
effort was made to derive distances that were comparable to known measurements
of trails of the same length on the map. In addition, minor ups
and downs are not included.
