We awoke to a more typical cool Adirondack morning. After breakfast of eggs and sausage, we took our packed lunches and hit the road to the nearby Ferd's Bog where we had an excellent guide, former DEC Park Ranger Gary Lee, who gave us lots of good information about the wonders of the bog and the region.
After the bog slog, we headed down Uncas Road a short distance and climbed up the back side of Black Bear Mountain. It was a perfect day for hiking and even though it has rained quite a bit recently, the bugs were nearly non-existent and we had a great view from the top and near top.
In the evening we are anticipating attending a concert at the most carefully restored, St. Williams Church at the former site of the Village of Racquette Lake, just off the college property.
