Give the Adirondacks
Christmas is just around the corner, and while we sit here and cross our fingers, pray and do snow dances in hopes of a good winter, it's never too early to think about summer. Maybe your family is planning a vacation, or you know someone who would love to take a trip to the Adirondacks. This year, why not give the gift of an Adirondack Experience?!

Durant is a great gift for anyone from history buffs, to food and wine connoisseurs, to the family with kids who love pizza!
If you have a thrill seeker on your list, white water rafting is the way to go. Indian Lake is the self-proclaimed, "White Water Capital of New York!" In the spring when the river swells from the melting snow, both Adirondac Rafting Company and Adventure Sports Rafting offer exciting rides with licensed guides leading the way on class III, IV, and V rapids. For the tame at heart, summer or fall offer great opportunities to sightsee down the river with class II and III rapids.
