Rattlesnake Mountain stands at 1,263 feet in the southeastern Adirondacks, offering a short climb to open ledges with views of Lake George. The trail is steep but brief — under two miles round-trip — making it a reliable half-day hike when bigger summits are socked in.
Nearby waters include Burpee Brook and Thrall Lake.
