Adirondack may refer to:
The Adirondack chair is a simple chair made of wood or man made materials, generally used outdoors. Originally made with 11 flat wooden boards, it features a straight back and seat and wide armrests. The advent of various man made materials have allowed for this style of chair to be made from polymers and other hard impact plastics.
The first Adirondack chair was designed by Thomas Lee while vacationing in Westport, New York, in the Adirondack Mountains in 1903. Needing outdoor chairs for his summer home, he tested his early efforts on his family. After arriving at a final design for a "Westport plank chair," he offered it to a carpenter friend in Westport in need of a winter income, Harry Bunnell. Bunnell saw the commercial potential of such an item being offered to Westport's summer residents, and apparently without asking Lee's permission filed for and received U.S. patent #794,777 in 1905. Bunnell manufactured hemlock plank "Westport chairs" for the next twenty years, painted in green or medium dark brown, and individually signed by him.

I designed and built this simple Adirondack chair on Twitch last week. It is a simple build and can easily be built with a very limited set of tools, In fact, anyone with a circular saw, or jig saw and a drill could make this Adirondack chair. During the Twitch hang out a friend asked me how long it would take if in a hurry. It was a good question. when building Adirondack chairs for profit the fast we can get it done the more money there is to be made. So I grabbed the plans I made and a timer to see exactly how fast I could build this simple Adirondack chair. the results were surprising! if you are interested in plans check below but make sure to check out the directors cut video first and don't forget to check me out on Twitch.

Mike and I went to Adirondack High Peaks for our first hiking trip. We initially planned for a 6 day trip but ended up cutting it to 4 days due to weather and camp site availability. Watch us struggle through the high peaks terrain in full packs and hike up Mount Marcy, the tallest mountain in New York .
