The Adirondack Forty Sixers, Inc. is throwing a grand 100 year anniversary celebration in honor of the first three finishers and what would be the stage for all of us that followed.
On June 10th 1925, brothers George and Robert Marshall and their guide and friend Herbert Clark became the first finishers of the Adirondack 46 High Peaks. We celebrate 100 years since this date of the first finishers with a grand celebration filled with fun and educational events in recognition of their endeavors and the club's rich history.
