NY 30 South of Horseshoe Lake

When NY 30 enters Saint Lawrence County for about 5 miles, it grows very wide for 2-lane highway. The shoulders of the road must be 13-14 feet wide on both sides. It must have originally been planned a four lane highway, but later was re-striped as a 2 lane highway, as there is no reason for a highway that wide in this very rural stretch of the Adirondacks.

Choppy Waters

The water was somewhat choppy on Horsehoe Lake as there was a steady breeze as the weather was clearing out.
