On July 15-16, 2015, the League of Extraordinary Adirondack Gentlemen (LEAG) enjoyed a glorious overnight outing to Forked Lake. We explored the Brandreth Lake outlet and the former site of Frederick Durant's The Cedars Great Camp. Pete Hornbeck, Rick Davidson, Rich Rosen, Bill McKibben, Tom Curley, Tom Bessette and myself were present, while our guide and historian Mike Prescott was on assignment for PBS working on an Adirondack documentary and our resident folksinger Dan Berggren had a gig that week. The weather, water and cameraderie were perfect, and hopefully members of the Adirondack Moutain Club can read all about it in the just-released July-August 2016 Adirondac  magazine.

In August 2015, my illustrated account of the 2014 expedition to Long Lake, Raquette and Cold Rivers was published as the cover story in the July-August 2015 issue. You can see the photos from this year's outing by clicking my "photo album" tab at the top of this page. Also check out the excellent photos by Tom Bessette, the newest member of the LEAG. his images can be found at his website http://www.tombessette.com/Collections/League-of-Extraordinary-Adiron/
