Hamilton County

Hamilton County is a county located in the U.S. state of New York. Its county seat is Lake Pleasant. It is one of only two counties that lie entirely within the Adirondack Park (Essex is the other). As of the 2010 census, the population was 4,836, making it the least populous county in New York. It is also the most sparsely populated county in the eastern half of the United States, with a population density of just over three people per square mile.

Hamilton County is in the north central part of the state, northwest of Albany. It lies entirely within Adirondack Park and consists mostly of publicly owned parkland. As the tourist folk will tell you, there is no permanent traffic light in the county.

The Cowsills – Indian Lake

By this point I should almost be in Indian Lake, then one mile north to where Cedar River Road splits off of NY 30 by the cemetery ...

Next year, the Cowsills song that made Indian Lake in the Adirondacks famous turns 50 years old. While most of the places referenced in this song are made up, the song's author, Tony Romano, stayed at Beeches Cottages on Indian Lake, which was the inspiration for the song.

Moose River Plains

Some of the pictures I've taken up at Moose River Plains through the years (although certainly not all of them).
