Debar Mountain
About
Debar Mountain is a summit in northern New York, rising to 3,303 feet about 12 miles from the town of Paul Smiths. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical July highs reach about 77°F with lows near 51°F, based on averages from a nearby weather station at Saranac. That station sits roughly 1,600 feet below the summit, so temperatures up high run cooler. The closest outing is the Debar Mountain Trail, about 2 miles away. Loon Lake Mountain Trail and the Loon Lake Mtn climbing area are both within about 5 miles. For time on the water, the Salmon River is about 7.5 miles off.
