Saranac Lake, New York: Lake Flower

Plenty of people come to the Adirondack Mountains in the summer, when everything is open and the warm days and cool nights are refreshing. They come in the winter to enjoy winter sports such as skiing.

And they come in the fall, because of the trees. Like these.

This is Lake Flower, which is located in Saranac Lake. This was the view along the lake one frosty October morning, when steam was coming off the lake on a 25-degree start to a day. Click on it for a larger view.

By the way, springs are a little less attractive. There are some nasty bugs up there for a few weeks in May or June. Outside of that, it's a very good spot for a vacation.
