The ladies and I spent a few days in the Adirondacks on Lake Lila a motor free public lake. It was spectacular! We didn't climb the mountain though... because the mama and baby moose got in the way.

Beautiful. Very wise of you to call a truce with the moose on the loose.

It really looks like you had the lake to yourself too. Were there many other people there? It's not a huge lake, but big enough that you could have a few groups with lots of space in between.
Looks like the parking area is a quarter mile from the lake. Did you have to carry your stuff that far, or could you get closer? |

What a gorgeous place. It's so peaceful-looking. I want to go there and boat and sit around the campfire, and sleep like the proverbial log. On a log, even.

The DEC controls where people are allowed to camp. It was actually a busy weekend up there but there are not enough sites for it to get crowded by any stretch. If you don't find an open site you have to move on.

I forgot to mention that it's a motor free lake so no jet ski nonsense. When we got home we were greeted bright and early by the continuous 4 wheeler nonsense. Don't kids ever work anymore? In my day...

OK, so campsite #2 has an island under it to cut down the dampness.
