Winter Festival

Notice in the background the "Ice Palace" constructed of blocks of ice harvested from the lake. The 2012 "Saranac Lake Winter Festival" will mark the 114th anniversary of this great northern New York Adirondack Town's mid-winter tradition! The Palace was originally referred to as the "Ice Tower" and evolved to the Palace name. It is constructed largely the same way today as it was 114 years ago, albeit with some improvements in saw technology! History buffs might enjoy this link: www.saranaclakewintercarnival.com/history/
