Where were we?
Tom and I had a great hike in the Adirondacks yesterday.
Where do think we were?

Snow Mountain perhaps? (the one east of Rooster Comb), but there are better views than that.
Also is that Darth Vader in a winter prison jump suit (in Neil's avatar)?

I suspect I am 0 for 2 with the guess of Slip Mountain. It seems unlikely that Neil would climb Slip so soon after Jay, but we all know he likes to obsess.
So while waiting for further confirmation, I'll strike out with the following guesses: Slide Mountain in the Sentinels and an Adk HH. Big Slash south of the Jays. Slide Mountain north of Moose.

Actually, I have no idea where we were. My mind , for some unknown reason, is a total blank. I woke up this morning with my camera clutched tightly in my hand and I discovered that mysterious picture inside. I was hoping for enlightenment.

I would guess its Neil heading for the Big slide in Tom's yard to play with his brother.

OK, so you peaked your hike at soda Yard (kind of sounds Bostonian). And that Yard is a mighty high hill at 6143'
 At 892 meters on the current metric map it would be 2927' which looks to be about right as the 1953 Ausable quad had it with a 2920' contour line.
