Trail Overview

First Peak is part of the southern Tongue Mountain Range rather than a standalone high-profile summit. DEC supports the Clay Meadows parking area and the broader Tongue Range Trail system, with First Peak functioning as one of the ridge objectives in that larger Lake George route context.
