Good info for any hike in our area!

This summer…THINK BEFORE YOU HIKE.

The Adirondacks offer incredible views, but many of our trails, including the popular Bald Mountain, are more challenging than they appear.

Before heading out, ask yourself:
• Am I physically prepared for this hike?
• Have I checked the weather?
• Do I have enough water, snacks, and basic first aid supplies?
• Do I have proper footwear?

If an emergency occurs, remember that Old Forge and many surrounding communities rely on volunteer emergency responders. The people who respond to help you are your neighbors, friends, family members, and community volunteers. Many rescues require responders to hike long distances over difficult terrain while carrying heavy equipment.

Our area is also an hour from the nearest hospital, and rescue operations can take significant time depending on location, weather, and available resources.

Before calling for assistance, consider your situation carefully. Can you safely walk out on your own? Is your injury or illness truly an emergency? If you need help, don’t hesitate to call but preparing properly before your hike can help prevent emergencies from happening in the first place.

Enjoy the mountains. Respect the mountains. Come home safely!

Inlet Volunteer Hose Company extends our sincere thanks to FEMA and MJ Burben INC. for securing a grant that made it possible to replace all of our 5-inch hose. This funding allowed us to upgrade hose on our trucks that had been in service for over 27 years!
