| In June '78 I knocked-off 5 peaks with my Scout Troop and a great leader that hooked me on wilderness adventures (Dix, East Dix, South Dix, Hough and McComb) | |

| ScAtTeRbOnE | First ADK Slide  Date Climbed: Aug 5, 2011 | |
| First ADK slide climb went great. Weather was hot but partly cloudy and views were great from the slide and summit! After hiking Dix last month I'm really starting to like the Dix Range, I'll go back to get the others soon. | |

| Finally a great day in the Dix Range for me.The weather was outstanding.Clear,amazing veiws from all 5 summits.Climbing the slide was heart pumping excitement worthy of the trek on its own.I spent hours upon this summit exploring all details.I would recommend this moderate hike to any fellow adventure seeker...Jim | |

| sprosseda | My first slide climb Date Climbed: Jul 5, 1996 | |
| Summitted this peak with my friend John Bousman (has first ascents in Washington, BC, and Alaska). We took a slide up then came over to another headwall and climbed it (4th class). This was my first alpine rock climb. Then over to the Dix's. Great day | |

| Enapai | Herds Path to New Slide Date Climbed: Jul 6, 2009 | |
| Went back to tag Macomb after cutting my March trip short. I was joined by my brother who had done Macomb as part of a Dix Range traverse before the hurricane. We decided to continue following Slide Brook down past the herds path (hopefully all the way to the marked trail). The blowdown along the brook gets very thick. I would strongly encourage taking the herds path. Still nothing like a little adventure in the woods. | |

| Climbed the slide from north, then went on to other Dixes. Wasn't much of a trail back then; bad blow-downs in one section. | |

| lalpinist | It's been a while ... Date Climbed: Sep 30, 2008 | |
| I has been a while since I've been to Macomb. The trail was pretty wet. Our dog (Guinness) flushed a rabbit on the way back that was about as big as she is. | |

| Tahawus | Macomb Mountain Date Climbed: Sep 16, 2006 | |
| Climbed with South Dix, East Dix and Hough via the Dix Trail from the Elk Lake Lodge. Going up the slide was a blast. Once we were over around 3000' a sea of clouds was at our feet. The summit boasted some great views of surrounding High Peaks. | |
