We stayed in this Great Camp dating from 1880 from July 27 to July 30

Taken by Carol from our guide boat. This bridge was built in the 1890's accross a dredged cut to allow guests to reach the Great Camps on Blue Mountain Lake by steam launch from Racquette Lake after one short overland trip. It has been lovingly restored to the orginal design.

We pulled up at a vacant campsite for lunch that is open to the public. We were the only people on the lake after rowing four miles from Blue Mountain Lake through Eagle Lake to Utowana Lake.

Carol and I get a private look backstage at the amazing collection of smallcraft at the great museum,
