Adirondack Loop, Bridge Closure Planned
« on: December 19, 2013, 12:55:02 pm »
The Franklin Falls bridge is scheduled to be closed for two weeks in July 2014.

Alternates:
- AC's Whiteface Mountain Alternative, which is longer but has less climbing.
- Connect Lake Placid with Bloomingdale via NY 86 and NY 3, shorter than the main route
- Connect Lake Placid with Lake Clear via NY 86 and Forest Home Rd., shorter yet

I'd recommend the Whiteface Mountain Alternative; this bit of road along Franklin Falls Pond is amazingly beautiful.  The second and third choices are good if your schedule doesn't allow extra distance.

The closure already happened THIS JULY (2013).  Bridge is fixed and open.
