Gray Peak is a mountain located in the town of Keene in Essex County, New York. It is the seventh-highest of the Adirondack High Peaks, with an elevation of 4,826 feet (1,471 m), and is located in close proximity to Mount Marcy, the highest peak in New York. Gray Peak is southwest of Mount Marcy and southeast of Mount Colden.[4] The first recorded ascent of the peak was made on September 16, 1872, by surveyor Verplanck Colvin and guide Bill Nye.[3] It was named for Asa Gray by Colvin.[5]
Gray Peak can be climbed on an unmarked trail from Lake Tear of the Clouds, which can be approached from the Elk Lake or Upper Works parking lots. Gray is the highest peak in the Adirondacks without a maintained and marked trail.[6]
