Schroon Lake

For our most recent trek into the Adirondacks we invited ourselves on the annual Killon canoe trip which was taking place at Schroon Lake. We tagged along and happily set up camp just before the sky opened up to a deluge of rain! Regardless of the weather, we managed to cook a campground feast over green wood and huddled under tarps to scarf it down!

The next morning with much improved weather, we paddled to the south and then across to the village of Adirondac for their famous spicy baked beans. On the return trip, the wind had kicked up and we required spray skirts in the whitecaps. We spent the rest of the night playing tunes around the campfire.

With children awaking early on the third day, we scooped them up and paddled to a nearby beach where they decided to swim with their clothes on. We played sharks and minnows before returning to pack up. It was a great trip despite some wet weather.
