Today we ate breakfast at an old hotel in Lake Placid and left under cloud cover around 7:45 a.m. Our ride was short today (46 miles) but we still climbed 2,007 feet and rode in rain for about 45 minutes. Climbing one small grade of road we saw this heard of elk behind a tall fence. They all had their noses in the air because it was thundering in the distance. We figured they sensed rain and we rode off but the rain caught us anyway. Was is so interesting in the mountains is the fact that the rain comes ands goes. Just an hour later we were drying out our shoes and socks at the lunch stop!
