Armstrong Mountain, Mountain summit in Adirondacks, New York, United States.
Armstrong Mountain rises to an elevation of 4,400 feet between Gothics and Upper Wolf Jaws, offering views across the upper Great Range and Johns Brook Valley.
Thomas Armstrong, a nineteenth-century lumberman from Plattsburgh, acquired the mountain through the Totten and Crossfield Purchase in 1866 along with his business partner Almon Thomas.
Ed Phelps and Thomas P. Wickes completed the first documented climb of Armstrong Mountain in 1875, establishing its position in Adirondack mountaineering history.
The Adirondack Mountain Reserve requires parking reservations from May through October, with access beginning at the Garden Parking Lot via the Phelps Trail.
The ascent includes fixed cables and a substantial ladder near the summit section, while the mountain ranks as the twenty-second highest peak in New York State.
