TURTLE ON THE ROAD, Part 4 -
Driving Through the Adirondacks
Sunday, January 31, 2010

I love driving through the Adirondacks... lakes and mountains all around, and often long stretches of road with few or no houses... just wonderful nature.

The drive home from Eagle Bay was a blast from the past... it turned out to go past North Creek, where I've twice run Race the Train in early August. The stretch along the Hudson River was particularly nice... it was too bad the pull-offs with informational kiosks were unplowed, so I wasn't able to stop and get any good pictures of the river.

Passed a number of trailheads along the way... reminders of how many cool places there are to explore and how little time there is to do the exploring...
