East Branch Sacandaga River 📍

Two years ago, my first camping trip of the year was along the East Branch of the Sacanadaga River at an old house site that has been long used as a designated campsite. Even camping in late April, there was still a fair bit of ice and residual snow left.

The first night it drizzled a bit, so I bought a tarp and strung it up. Later in the evening it tapered off. I brought some wood and starting fluid, so it got a good fire going quickly, and it wasn’t too bad.

It got nice by morning, and I cooked up a pretty good breakfast on the griddle.

No complaints about the sun after all rain and dampness the previous night.

The first day, I drove over to Garnet Lake.

And did some fishing, without much luck in Mill Creek.

I got back to camp and cooked up some burgers.

The following night I had a nice little fire.

Then retired to my well lit truck cap.

The next day, I hiked back to Auger Falls.

Above the falls, in the flats, the water was quiet, the birds were singing.
