Fivemile Mountain
About
Fivemile Mountain is a summit in New York, about 6.5 miles from the town of Bolton Landing. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. At a weather station roughly 36 miles away, typical averages run to highs near 75°F and lows around 54°F in July, with September cooling to highs around 67°F. That station sits several hundred feet lower than the mountain, so expect temperatures up high to run cooler. Several trails start close by. Five Mile Point Trail and Tongue Mountain Range Trail are each about a mile away, and Deer Leap Trail is just under 2 miles off. Climbers can find Ark Wall about 5.5 miles away, and anglers can head to The Sagamore, about 6.7 miles away.
