But wait, there's more cool things to do in the Adirondack Mountains. The snow is wonderful at Mount Pisgah; a good site for whitewater paddling is Cold River. This lake is so wonderful. This is a great neighborhood for people who like lakes. Lower Saranac Lake is a lake close at hand; Meacham Lake Outlet is a magnificent whitewater spot close by. If you came to camp Donaldson George A and Sons is a tremendous place to do that, and for you golfers we recommend close by Saranac Lake Golf Club.
A day on the slopes of Whiteface Mountain is just what you need, and First Pond is fine enough to spend more than a day at, Pioneer Village is a fine local campground. So much exciting stuff to do here at First Pond, too fine to be true. Not enough hours in a day to enjoy the Adirondack Mountains. The summit of Ampersand Mountain can be distinguished from First Pond, and after a long day outdoors Woodlake Inn is a tremendous place to spend a night or two.

With the greatest vertical drop in the east at 3,166 feet, very few resorts do this better than Whiteface. With long runs over three separate, yet connected areas, you'll spend maximum time on the snow and minimum time on the lifts.
There's also Little Whiteface with almost 2,500 vertical feet. And don't forget Kids Kampus which has separate lifts, lodge, ticketing, rentals, snowsports school and child care. This is an outstanding experience for young beginners in a low-key, safe environment.
A new area opens during 2008/2009 season. Lookout Mountain looms over the horizon covered with pristine snow. For centuries this is how it has been. Until now. This season, Lookout Mountain will be yours for the first time. This means miles of new trail. Literally undiscovered country for you to fall in love with. Whiteface has another face, so Lookout.
