Camping at North South Lake

Finally the weather cooperated and we had our first camping trip of the year!! Third time lucky!

We had heard so many wonderful things about North South Lake and were not disappointed. It is in a fabulous location, with many superb hiking trails close by.

On Saturday after setting up our site we headed for Kaaterskill Falls. I was not too sure if we would make it all the way to the end of the (vertical) trail with the boys, but they ended up doing much better than me!! Fearless the whole way.

The views along the way were AMAZING.








We had a great meal cooked on the campfire on Saturday night. The temperature dropped to around 30 degrees on Saturday night, but we were bundled up well. The only thing that disturbed us in the night was a beaver chewing on a tree in the next site to ours. Here is the damage it did.




After breakfast on Sunday morning we headed for Mary's Glen. The trailhead is within the camp grounds so it was easy to get to.



After the Kaaterskill Falls the day before this seemed rather tame, but still a very enjoyable hike.





Sadly all good things come to an end. We packed up and headed home, already planning next years visit.
