	Snowboarding Mount Marcy, Adirondacks
		The plan was to snowshoe to Marcy Dam or as near as possible to Mt. Marcy or until we got tired, find a nice lean-to and camp there that night.

		We would hike up Marcy and snowboard down, not because it was the best run but because it was the highest and most well-known, and also because it was what we had set out to do.
