Claire and I spent the morning at Lake Luzerne beach with friends and headed out after lunch to Lens Lake for an afternoon paddle. Lens Lake is just southwest of Stony Creek. It was a very nice little lake with gorgeous bog plants including pitcher plant, sundew, all kinds of sphagnum mosses and cotton grass. Beaver activity was quite evident, creating sinuous channels almost like following a small stream. Open water, large rocks, sandy bottom... nice surprise! It felt very much like being in the heart of the Adirondacks! We saw great blues, wood ducks, a beaver slapped her/his tail at us and a plethora of dragonflies and damselflies. Beautiful afternoon.
