Buying Ferry Tickets
This morning we descended the Green Mountains of Vermont and approached Lake
Champlain. As we approached the lake we could see another monsterous mountain range popping up in the distance. This mountain range would be the Adirondack Mountains of upstate New York. As we gazed at these mountains, they looked daunting since by now we were already worn down from riding over the White Mountains of New Hampshire and the Green Mountains of of Vermont.
Even still, our exitement pushed us forward and at mid-day we crossed Lake Champlain on the ferry and entered into New York state at Ticonderogo. We stopped in Ticonderogo to have a late lunch and waited out the blistering afternoon heat. Later in the afternoon we made one of our most challenging ascents of the ride as we climbed a couple thousand feet on a very steep gradient into the spare wilderness of the Adirondacks!
We Thank Today's Fans For Life:
Bike Vermont - Refilled our water bottles and gave us cookies to send us into New York State.
Karl - Owner of Medcalf Campgrounds who gave Drew a nice discount on some sweet "Starsky" shades
Paul - Camper at Medcalf camprounds who gave us some cold beverages to relax in the evening.
Day 9 Recap: Middlebury, VT to Severance, NY (40 miles)
