Enjoy yourself Enjoying the beauty of the Adirondacks is as important if not more important than the recreational activity itself. Take your time and look around. Don't push yourself or others in your group. Keep groups together and if you or someone in the group can't make it to your destination, turn around and go back. A shortened enjoyable trip is much better than a miserable longer one. Millions of people come to the Adirondacks each year to recreate on the lands and waters. Some proper preparation will greatly help to ensure that your experience is positive. So take the steps to properly prepare and have a safe and enjoyable time recreating in the Adirondacks.
