"It is the glory Of the Adirondack Mountains tna'
no traveller has been able 10 hken them 10 any
other part Of the earths surface Ihe foseniio'
on the Pacific Slope. and the Adirondacks on 'ho
Atlantic stand alone In their peculiar types Oh
sublimity and beauty" This was written many
wears ago by an enthusiastic traveller but In no
norton of tho region DO they seem more appro-
pirate than In the vicinity Of St Huoerrs ihh'
which Is situated at the head or the ioVe'y heeno
Valley the haunt of the artist and the nohe oi
lovers of nature Directly In front OF the mousse
towers Noonmark Mountain one Of the most at
tractive In this region OF graceful peaks; TO the
left frowns the Giant, forbidding and impressive
while In the middle distance to the south the
scenery is varied by the picturesque pass leading

seems all too narrow for the passage of the little
river and carriage road which traverses 1t.
The Au Sable Lakes without doubt the most
yrandly and delicately beautiful sheets OF water
on this continent and no tour of the mountains
is complete without visit to them. The lower
lake Is a gem OF Alpine beauty with lofty noun
tains towering preciptously from the wafer M

ousiy irregular CSothics and many Of the other
celebrated mountains being assembled hire 10 aod
