Floodwood Mountain
About
Floodwood Mountain is a summit in northern New York, about 6.8 miles from the town of Tupper Lake. The Floodwood Mountain Trail begins just 0.1 mile away and offers the most direct way to approach the peak on foot. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical averages from the nearby Tupper Lake Sunmount weather station show July highs near 77°F and lows around 54°F. The summit sits well above that station, so temperatures up top run cooler. Winters are cold, with January highs averaging about 25°F at the station. Several other outings lie close by. The Adirondack Rail Trail is about 1.6 miles away, and paddlers can take on the Floodwood Pond Loop, about 3.7 miles away, or the West Branch Saint Regis River. Hikers can add the Long Pond Mountain Trail, roughly 4.2 miles off.
