Adirondack Forty-Sixers

The Adirondack Forty-Sixers are an organization of hikers who have climbed all forty-six of the traditionally recognized High Peaks of the Adirondack Mountains. They are often referred to just as 46ers.
== Origins ==

The first 46ers were brothers Robert and George Marshall, and their guide and family friend Herbert Clark. The Marshalls thought up the idea after spending much of their childhood in the region and examining the collection of Verplanck Colvin maps owned by their father, Louis Marshall. They devised criteria for the high peaks they would climb, choosing any summit that was more than 4,000 feet (1,219 m) above sea level in elevation with at least 300 feet (91.4 m) of vertical rise on all sides or separated from the next closest summit by 0.75 mile (1.2 km). They initially planned to climb only the summits above , of which there were 42, and did so between 1918 and 1924.
They climbed the mountains later, on the suggestion of friends.
At the time that they undertook this goal, there were no trails up many of the peaks, making this a particularly formidable accomplishment. The trio first climbed Whiteface Mountain on August 1, 1918 and finished the 46 with Mount Emmons on June 10, 1925. One of the peaks, Mount Marshall in the MacIntyre Range, has since been named in honor of Bob, and the brook (Herbert Brook) that is the most popular approach has been named after their guide Herbert Clark.
As an organization, the Adirondack Forty-Sixers dates to 1936, when Ernest R. Ryder and Edward L. Hudowalski formed a social club, originally known as the Troy Forty-Sixers, for people who had successfully climbed all 46 of the Adirondack high peaks. The club later expanded its membership, and was formally incorporated by the State of New York as the Adirondack Forty-Sixers in 1948.
Grace Hudowalski was the 46ers club historian for over sixty years. 〔http://www.syracuse.com/outdoors/index.ssf/2014/06/adirondack_mountain_renamed_after_first_woman_to_scale_all_46_high_peaks.html〕 In 1937 she became the ninth person and first woman to climb all 46 of the Adirondack High Peaks, and in 2014 the mountain formerly known as East Dix was renamed Grace Peak after her due to this accomplishment. 〔http://www.syracuse.com/outdoors/index.ssf/2014/06/adirondack_mountain_renamed_after_first_woman_to_scale_all_46_high_peaks.html〕
