Ausable Chasm

While we were in New York, Grandma and Grandpa volunteered to take care of Anna while we took off for an overnight excursion. We chose to visit Ausable Chasm near Plattsburgh, and we were not disappointed. The location, as the website suggests, has become quite "touristy." Fortunately, the views are still spectacular.






You will probably be relieved to know this walkway is closed. The site has quite a long history, and this is a picture of one of the earlier washed-out paths.





The trails give you access to different elevations along the chasm. If you look closely near the bottom of this picture, you will see people tubing in the water. Ben and I weren't dressed for it, but it was a hot enough day to be very tempting!


Thank you Grandma and Grandpa for giving us this time to celebrate our 11 years together as husband and wife. It was a memorable and relaxing trip.
