The Ultimate Adirondack 46er Gift: Introducing the Hiking Boot Tracker from Victor Wood Forge

If you've ever stood at the summit of Algonquin or Marcy — lungs burning, views stretching to forever — you know the Adirondack 46er challenge is more than a bucket list. It's a calling. And every peak you add deserves to be remembered.

That's exactly why we created the Adirondack 46 High Peaks Challenge Hiking Boot Tracker.

What Is the ADK 46er Challenge?

The Adirondack 46er challenge is a legendary hiking achievement for those who summit all 46 of the High Peaks in New York's Adirondack Mountains. From modest Couchsachraga to the towering summit of Mount Marcy at 5,344 feet, each peak is its own story — its own hard-earned memory.

Completing all 46 earns you the coveted 46er designation from the Adirondack 46er organization. It's a pursuit that can take years, and for many hikers, it becomes a lifelong adventure.

A Tracker Worthy of the Challenge

Most hikers jot their summits down on paper or bury them in a spreadsheet. But your journey through the High Peaks deserves better than a sticky note on the fridge.

Our Hiking Boot Tracker is a handcrafted wall-mounted display built from three premium American hardwoods:

• Walnut — laser-engraved "ADK" lettering inside the boot silhouette
• Cherry — individual boot tread tokens, one for each of the 46 peaks
• Maple — the base that holds all 46 tokens, shipped loose in a canvas satchel so you can place each one as you summit

At 20"L × 8.5"W, it's a conversation piece the moment someone walks into the room. Every token placed is a peak conquered — a permanent record in wood of everything you've worked for.

Handcrafted in New York

This tracker is designed and made right here in New York State at Victor Wood Forge, using laser-engraved precision to bring each detail to life. No two pieces are exactly alike, which means every tracker carries a little bit of the ADK spirit it was made to celebrate.

The Perfect Gift for Any Adirondack Hiker

Whether you're shopping for a seasoned 46er, someone just starting their High Peaks journey, or yourself — this tracker makes an exceptional gift. It's practical, beautiful, and deeply personal in a way that no generic hiking gear ever could be.

It also pairs perfectly with our full Adirondack High Peaks Gifts collection, which includes refrigerator magnets, ornaments, shelf art, and building block trackers for those who want to display their progress a different way.
