The Laurentian Chapter is the sponsor of the Kids on the Trail Hiking Challenge . Learn more about this challenge on the Kids on the Trail Page. We are near the recently acquired Champion Lands where important river corridors have been opened up to canoeing and hiking. The St. Regis, Grasse, Oswegatchie, and Raquette all flow north through St. Lawrence County offering some of the best canoeing in the Northeast. In addition, the county is home to numerous lakes, including Cranberry Lake, and to portions of the Five Ponds Wilderness.
