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.

Autumn Afternoon on the Cedar River Flow

Beautiful autumn afternoon on the Cedar River Flow. The mercury was around 85 degrees with a nice breeze, so I can't complain about the weather. Leaves are already somewhat beyond peak, although with the haze, looking south, they are hard to make our the colors.

To the End of Whitehouse Road

Documenting this section of the West River Road in the SIlver Lake Wilderness as you go out to the end of the road in Whitehouse Road. I hope it remains open for future generations to enjoy this scenic drive.

Driving along the West Branch of the Sacandaga River on West River Road about halfway between Whitehouse and Wells in the Adirondack Park.
