Dog Days of Summer

It was forecast to be a hot, humid day (in the 90s). So, I decided to do some short easy hikes in the Southern Adirondacks and hopefully try get to a lake to cool off. Howie had company on this trip (Cora).

The first hike was up Kane mountain. We went up the trail from Green Lake side. It was a short, easy climb. There was a fire tower at the top and the cab was open. Views were nice, but a little hazy.

Summit Elevation: Kane 2180 ft
Round-trip Distance: 1.5 mi
Elevation Change: 600 ft

The second hike was to Nine Corner lake. We explored the paths around the lake and did some swimming ... Well Cora did a little bit... Howie doesn't swim... I just waded my feet. Walked about 3 miles. Dogs are now dog tired.
