Heading Into the Campsite on the East Branch

|

It was a rainy start to my camping trip, but at least at had a campsite that was nice, high and dry, just off of NY 8. A bit icy and snow covered, but it's the Adirondacks in April.

Pealing Paint

|

Part of NY 8 has stainless steel guardrails that were painted brown when they were installed but have a lot of paint pealing off them. Most of the COR-TEN guard rails that once were common in the Adirondacks have been removed due to premature rusting.
