From Bald Mountain, you can capture a birds-eye panoramic view of miles and miles of natural beauty.

Capture rustic Americana with the charming shops and restaurant along Main Street.
The Old Mill Restaurant’s working water mill provides an interesting backdrop for a family portrait.
And, even though seeing one is rare, you never know, you may just spot and capture an image of an Adirondack Moose, these enormous creatures are beautiful and awe-inspiring. Remember though, you’re in their home, so photograph and treat them with respect.
