   Underhill Center, Vermont

   Underhill is within Vermont's 39,837-acre Mt. Mansfield State Forest. On the headwaters of the Brown's River, at about 2,000 feet elevation, the park lies on the west slope of 4,300 feet Mt. Mansfield, the state's highest peak. Just over the summit ridge is the Stowe ski area, one of North America's original ski resorts.

   The elevation and corresponding exposure to harsh climatic conditions have resulted in some relatively unusual vegetation types along the mountain's summit ridge. The low, stunted-plants found in the alpine tundra near the summit, very rare in New England, are more typical of types found on broad expanses of Arctic tundra a thousand miles farther north. These plants are fragile (if you hike to the summit, please stay on marked trails).

   The park is probably best known for its hiking. There are four trails to the summit ridge of Mt. Mansfield from Underhill State Park. Walking up the gated road from the park headquarters, the trails begin branching off shortly above the group camp area. The Sunset Ridge Trail, 3 miles to the summit, is the most popular. Vermont’s Long Trail traverses the summit ridge and, with several trails from the other side of the mountain, many loops are possible. Hiking information and trail maps are available at the park headquarters.

   Facilities / Amenities The CCC-built pavilion has a fireplace and picnic tables The CCC-built pavilion has a fireplace and picnic tables The upper camp area, about 3/4 of a mile above the ranger station, has 7 lean-to sites and 2 tent sites, pit toilets, and is reserved for organized group-use. In the lower camp area, around the contact station, are 11 tent sites and 6 lean-to sites. There is cold water and flush toilets in the restrooms, but there are no showers.

   Access to all campsites requires a short walk. Campsites are not accessible by vehicle.

   The park also has a CCC-built sheltered tentsite tentsite that can be rented for up to a maximum of 8 people. The site comes with a picnic table and the shelter fireplace is to be used in lieu of a fire ring. Additionally, there are 2 standing grills adjacent to the shelter. The sheltered tentsite is $51 per night plus the $8 reservation fee.

   Off-season access: The park gate remains open after park closes until the first snowfall. Once it snows, the gate is closed until there is sufficient snowfall to ski into the park, then it is reopened until spring melt.

    Saranac Lake Islands Adirondack Preserve

    Saranac Lake, New York

    Saranac Lake Islands Adirondack Preserve is a gem for those who crave a bit of rustic tranquility. This place is all about primitive camping, with most sites accessible only by boat. Imagine setting up camp on your own private island, surrounded by the serene waters of Saranac Lake. It's a popular spot, so you'll want to plan ahead and reserve early.

    The campsites here are spacious and offer a good deal of privacy. Visitors often rave about the peacefulness and natural beauty. You can expect to see plenty of wildlife, from loons to toads, and the fishing is top-notch. Whether you're angling for pike, bass, or sunfish, you'll find plenty to keep you busy.

    One thing to note is that the weather can be unpredictable. It’s not uncommon to experience 40-degree nights in the middle of summer, so come prepared for anything. The lack of modern amenities like showers and electric hookups adds to the charm for many campers, but it’s something to keep in mind if you’re used to more creature comforts.

    For those who love a bit of adventure, renting a canoe or kayak is a breeze, and it’s a fantastic way to explore the lake. Some campers have even rented motorboats to bring in more gear, making their stay even more comfortable. The nearby town is convenient for picking up ice and other essentials, so you’re never too far from what you need.

    Overall, Saranac Lake Islands offers a unique and memorable camping experience. Whether you're here for the fishing, the solitude, or just to disconnect from the hustle and bustle, you’ll find it a special place to unwind and enjoy nature.
