Auger Falls
Temporary Snowmobile Bridge
During the snowmobile season, a temporary bridge was built over the wash-out on Teachout Road, to be replaced with a culvert in fill for vehicle access eventually.

Paddling Along
Below NY 8 Bleeds
I noticed that the hillside below the modern NY 8 cut and fill near Auger Falls is bleeding red. I assume it's iron eating bacteria, from cutting and filling in part of the hillside as part of the 1968 bypass of Old Route 8A. Too red to be acid mine drainage, which is uncommon in Adirondacks unlike Appalachia.
