Painter Mountain stands at 1,362 feet in the southern Adirondacks, a modest summit with trailless access through mixed forest. The peak sees light use—no maintained path, but the elevation gain is manageable for scramblers comfortable with map and compass.
Nearby waters include L Pond and Twin Ponds.
