New York's Adirondack Park

Magnificent sunsets. Incredible full moon. And I'm sure the sunrises were equally beautiful, however I never made it to one of those. Six million acres to explore in the Adirondack Park. During our five days, we kayaked, swam, road biked and hiked. The Deer River Campsite near Malone was our base. The campground is on a smaller lake called the Deer River Flow. It was a full schedule that still left millions of acres to explore on our next visit.




The view from atop Debar Mountain. It was nice to have it all to ourselves, but we would have been happy to share the mosquitos with more blood donors.



Always enjoyable to eat lunch after a good hike up.



The Deer River Flow is shallow affording opportunities for beautiful aquatic flowers such as these lilies.



Hey! There's Debar Mountain in the distance.



On our last day, we had the pleasure of catching up with some former City Kids Camp staff. Jessica was with me my first summer in Wyoming. Here she is with her beautiful family.



Chris and Heather live just 15 minutes from Jessica, though they have never met (yet) they have a lot in common. Chris worked for City Kids many summers. Recently he returned for a summer with his wife Heather. Now they are starting a new generation of campers. Meet Max, the eight month old boy wonder. So cute!
