North Country explorer from Edwards NY
A nice day trip into the Hitchen's park area, above Horseshoe Lake in Piercefield . We had 3-4" of fresh snow and temps in the mid 20's.Ice was forming in the smaller bodies of water but Hitchen's pond was and the Bog River were still open. This is a great 7.5 miles of the Adirondack's best views. The views from the overlook are some of the finest in this part of the park.

Views of the high peaks are amazing.
The smaller ponds are starting to freeze up.
