We drove up to Whiteface mountain (4th hightest in the northeast). There was an elevator that took you to the very top! And this is what we saw at the top:
Lake Placid!
The road that we drove up.
Clouds! does anyone see a woman in the clouds in the bottom right corner, or is it just me?
a storm the next mountain over.
the weather station.
a window inside the weather station (i thought it looked cool).
a tunnel inside the mountain that led to the elevator.
woohoo!
Other things we saw when not climbing Whiteface:
Olympic Ski Jumps from the 1980 Olympics in Lake Placid. I have noooooooooooo idea how anyone could ski down that super steep slope, fly through the air, and hopefully land without dying!
