Adirondack Winter Carnivals Kick-Off February’s Line-Up of Festivals
I know it kills everyone to look for things to do every weekend. It looks like every corner of the Adirondacks is having some sort of “event” next month. Strange how the suffix “-stock” never made the list.
Given so many to choose from, I thought a map would help. Plus, I threw in a couple bonus Carnifests and a planning chart.
(Large Map)
1. Colton Winterfest 2. Cancelled – Rotary Winter Carnival 3. Lake George Winter Carnival 4. Massena Winter Carnival 5. Canton Winterfest
6. McCauley Mt Winter Carnival 7. Saranac Lake Winter Carnival
8. Ogdensburg River Shiver 9. Empire State Winter Games
10. Indian Lake Winterfest 11. Raquette Lake Winter Carnival
12. Hague Winter Weekend 13. Long Lake Winter Wacky Week
14. Inlet Frozen Fire & Ice
The intrepid Carnifest fans could enjoy for 18 days in a row!!
If anyone has better links for these, I’ll take them.

In case you didn’t notice, The Adirondack Boys are back.
Guess who just got back today?
Them wild-eyed boys that had been away
Haven’t changed, have much to say
But man, I still think them cats are crazy
One of the best blogs about Adirondack life, style, and Old Forge.
Give it a read, you won’t be dissappointed.

Found a cool new Adirondack blog over the weekend in spite of feverish Oaxaca blogging.
The Adirondack Boys
Welcome to our blog! We are two guys who built a home in New York State’s great Adirondack Park and love to share its treasures with our friends. We have been on the hunt for the best of the Adirondacks in a single place, one great reference for all things fabulous in the Adirondacks. And this is it! We can’t wait to share our Adirondacks with you — from its Great Camps to its great camp. — The Boys
A great addition to our corner of the blogosphere! They probably got some good snow – Yeah! Welcome to the Adirondacks.

Actually, the list of 50 All-Star Family Camps. Not exactly sure what the eligibility criteria for consideration might be, but at a minimum they are all ACA accredited campgrounds. This mostly means that they have been vetted on “26 health and safety standards and are usually handicapped-accessible”. None on the list are cheap, so any third-party endorsement really helps take some of the risk out of the equation. Not really what I’d normally look for, but the more I looked, the more appealing it becomes.
