Second year Advanced Section camper Grayson became Pok-O-MacCready’s fourth ADK-46er of 2015, finishing his climbing quest late Thursday morning on the summit of Haystack. He was joined by a group of friends from ADV and CIT.
For Grayson, the best part was “Probably just getting to the top. It was a little windy and it rained for awhile, but it was a lot of fun and we had good food.”

As always, the food included a jar of baby food. “It was like this pear mixed with raspberry- it wasn’t bad, actually it was really good.”
Now that he’s a 46er, Grayson plans to continue hiking. In fact, he plans to climb Haystack again really soon. “My dad and I will come back and celebrate it after camp’s over.”
Two more campers are expected to finish their 46ers prior to the end of session #1.
Also, on Thursday, camp finished its collective 46ers for the summer; so far, 63 wilderness trips have gone out. (See full list of camp hikes and camp 46ers HERE)
