Adirondacks - Part 4

Just realized we had forgotten to share Sawyer's adventure on Whiteface Mountain, NY this past September.  Although we call ourselves "hikers", we were not willing to sacrifice our legs, nor our sanity, to climb 3,400+ feet when we could opt to relax in our vehicle while driving up the mountain; which only left us a mere 100 foot climb to the summit....yes, much easier...

 (slippery climb to the top...hang on to those railings!)

What can I say:  A man in a kilt, standing on the summit, holding his beloved American flag...God Bless America!
