It's the second half of November as the label job I ran today reminds me. π·οΈ The landscape is cold and barren, it's dark out for a good portion of day, and riding home in the dark isn't much fun. But you make the best of it, and I figure the extra sleep and time to learn isn't a bad thing. π Next adventure after Thanksgiving! π¦ Hopefully the fire risk is down by then as I want to have a big bonfire in wilderness π₯ after a good day riding trail or hiking. πΆ
Dix Mountain is located 5 1/2 miles back from Elk Lake via the Elk Lake - Dix Mountain and Beck-horn trails. There are two camping areas located roughly 1 and two miles north of Elk Lake, along with trails to Hough Peak, Macomb Mountain and Grace Peak.
Located a 1/2 mile off the shoreline in Lake Champlain, the 945 acre Valcour Island is home to 26 designated campsites along the shoreline and several hiking trails. Parts of the island are quite rocky, with certain points more then 90 feet above the lake.
