| Fun peak, I'm just not used to SO many people. Very crowded but both peaks were fun and easy. | ||

| Climbed via the Porter Mountain Trail from the Garden. Had blueberries along the hike for almost the whole way. The summit offered some respite from the crowds on Cascade and the views were just as good as the ones on its more popular neighbor. | ||

| Did Nippletop and Dial the day before, headed to Porter, then on to Cascade. Made for a full weekend! Beautiful day in the ADK's. Probably one of the best ever. Sunny, mild, barely a breath of wind. Enjoyed phenomenal views from Porter--icy and a bit slippery on top. Headed to Cascade from there. 18/46 | ||

| A hop, skip, and slide on ice from Cascade. The summit is surprisingly windy considering how many trees are around. | ||

| I'm probably one of the few who didn't do this in tandem with Cascade. We climbed from route 73 after canceling Big Slide because the weather forecast said peaks in the clouds. Less crowded than Cascade and the views to the South are almost as nice. Bagged Cascade again on the way back. | ||

| zofon | Did in tandem with Cascade Date Climbed: May 11, 2002 | |
| Climbed this mountain a bunch of times now. Its usually much less busy than its close neighbor Cascade. So if you want a little more solitude head for Porter. | ||

| We had maybe the perfect summer day for Cascade/Porter. Nice hike and really good views from Porter I thought. 9 hours total with my 5 year old son. | ||
