Already it's the second half of the month. 🍁 September is rapidly fading into October, with lots of color and cooler weather for the coming weeks and months. I'm so busy these days, but look forward to many adventures in changing seasons.

Poke O Moonshine Fire Tower

 Poke O Moonshine Fire Tower

Poke-O-Moonshine Fire Tower is located 2,161 feet above sea level and offers sweeping views of Northern Adirondacks and Lake Champlain Valley includes points as far north as Chazy, and south to the High Peaks of the Adirondacks.

There are two ways up Poke-o-Moonshine. The most common way nowadays is the 2.5 mile old woods road, that provide a quiet, modestly steep way up the mountain. The other way from the former Poke-O-Moonshine Campground is a 1.2 mile steep and eroded footpath.
