End to End


My last post was the start of the Adirondack Trail in Fonda, well, by Sunday I got up to Malone in time to take this beautiful pic of the north end of the Adirondack Trail.

Mohawk Trail Escape



I broke my butt trying to finish this crap in Averill Park so I could get up North. I finally took off around 9 PM, taking NY 7 from Latham to I-890 in Schenectady, to NY 5 in Glenville, then take NY 5 all the way to NY 30 A in Fonda. An anger check was that by the time I got to I-890 in Schen., I was ready to kill 1/2 the other "drivers". But from 890 west, I was fine. Old NY 5 is great, it goes through the best parts of Amsterdam, and you follow the railroad most of the way. In Fonda, just west of the light at NY 30A, I ran into this sign on their remodeled Main Street. Who else would stop to take a picture like this?
