Thanks for stopping by and for this nice write-up. Just to clarify..don’t want your readers to think the boat goes to Sagamore and the Museum! The Durant cruises on Raquette- ranging in duration from 1.5 hrs to 3 hrs. Historic commentary throughout. We partner with Great Camp Sagamore (4 miles away) and Adirondack Museum (12 miles away) to offer the Gilded Age Tour. This is a great experience for those who love history. We also partner with Wild Center in Tupper – Cuisine and Critters- and the train ride out of Utica or Thendara- Rail and Sail. For groups of 20+ we make the arrangements for the tour. For individuals, you just drive yourself to each venue. Come see us this summer! Donna

I had no idea people still did ice harvesting. Cool! Um… literally.

that looks like so much fun. all except the snow machines whirrrrrring. reminds me too much of sarah palin and her ice-machine references. that ice looks thick. they still cut and haul the ice in upper michigan the same way. storing it for the upper peninsula for summer I’m told. that’s a really nice day trip. this is a great piece indeed Becs. where are the smiling kids faces ???? and the HOT Chocolate ???? I feel deprived…
