Phelps Mountain, Mountain summit in Adirondack High Peaks, New York, United States.

Phelps Mountain rises to 4,161 feet elevation, representing the thirty-second highest peak among the Adirondack Mountains in New York State.

Charles Wood made the first documented climb of Phelps Mountain in June 1904 while working for the J. & J. Rogers Company logging operation.

The mountain belongs to the Adirondack Forty-Sixers challenge, where hikers aim to reach all 46 high peaks in the Adirondack range.

The trail starts at Adirondak Loj, following the Van Hoevenberg path past Marcy Dam before branching left onto a red-marked route for 1.2 miles.

The summit provides clear views of the ridge formed by Tabletop, Yard, and Big Slide mountains, with Giant Mountain visible in the distance.

Location: New York
