Camp Kiwassa, NY






Wednesday and our week is half over L. It was another action packed day. After breakfast, Carol and I went for a canoe ride on a still and quiet lake. Very nice. Next a group left for a climb of Mt. Baker. The trailhead starts near the center of the town of Saranac Lake. It was an easy climb for most and we were especially impressed that 3 year old Sam made it most of the way. Grandpa had a rough time getting down even though he was using two climbing sticks. His climbing days are definitely numbered unless he can find a way down on either skies or a chairlift.

In the afternoon Steve, Nate and I took a boat trip over to a lock which leads to a series of lakes about 5 ½ feet higher than Lake Kiwassa. The lock was fun and a first for Steve and Nate. On the way back we got drenched by a sudden rain squall. No pictures of the squall.

Supper was a real treat with Quesada’s wiped up by Steve and Diane featuring left-overs from earlier in the week.
