Beck-horn

Beckhorn stands at 4,774 feet in the Santanoni Range, a trailless summit reached by bushwhack from the Bradley Pond Trail. The approach covers roughly 8 miles one-way with steep terrain and thick spruce — a remote objective for experienced navigators.

§ Overview

At 4,774 ft, Beck-horn clears 4,000 feet — an Adirondack High Peak by elevation, though not one of the official 46. Nearby waters include Lillian Brook and Dix Pond.
