We selected Snowy Owl Camp on Cranberry Lake in the Northern Adirondacks for the cite of our 2013 Kayaking vacation.  The Lake is mostly in unpopulated wilderness area, so on day long kayaking outings we often saw only one or two other boats. Here is a sample of images from that vacation.  They don’t really do justice to the beauty of this location.
