Union Falls
on October 8, 2011.

Union Falls is a beautiful mid-size man-made lake with the Saranac River is damned up by a relatively high dam. There is roadside camping, and kayaking on state land here. These are the pictures I took on that particular Saturday in October.

... locations of photos are estimates that were done using heads-up digitizing.
