About McKensie Pond:
McKenzie Pond is a forest of glacial erratics in the Adirondacks near Mount McKenzie. The climbs range from slabs to roofs, from traverses to highballs. The gigantic granite boulders have enough easy and moderate problems to keep beginners occupied and plenty of difficult problems to spit you off over and over again. |

Directions: | From Route 86 headed towards Saranac Lake from Lake Placid take a right on McKenzie Pond Rd. in Raybrook. At the top of the hill you'll pass an old barn and then shortly after that a sandy pull off on the right. Don't park at the barn or across the street. |
