60 miles. Hills. That’s all I have to say.

Since our hotel did not serve breakfast, we got up early and were on the road before the mists had burned off.

We found our breakfast spot in Osceola and in conversation with some of the regulars there we were told to expect hills today… Yes, we know. We were also told that the road we were to be on was “very scenic.” No, not so much. Just hilly. We were able to buy sandwiches for later in the day.

The road followed the Moose River up stream and I think we found the one scenic spot on the whole ride.

We finally rolled into Old Forge, a resort and vacation town in the Adirondacks on Old Forge Pond, the first lake of the Fulton Chain.

As usual, we were a little too fatigued to enjoy the sights but did sit by the lake for a bit then walked around town and had one of the best meals of our trip at the Five Corners Cafe.

Tomorrow we head deeper into the Adirondacks and more hills.
