Blue Mountain Lake, NY, UP and back.....



(BEFORE the climb)
When I was a kid, I remembered driving through Blue Mountain Lake, NY and thinking it was the PRETTIEST town in the Adirondacks, New York's northern mountain range. I have wanted to go back for about 30 years, and Saturday we did.  The villages in the Adirondacks all seem kinda touristy and junky with beautiful scenery, BUT Blue Mountain Lake is PERFECT, a tiny village on a lake with a beach and a, well, big Mountain.  We climbed up and down Saturday with the dog, a tough climb on a glorious day .....more tomorrow!
