Does the Noonmark Diner still make a damn good pie, or has that place sold out?
Don't forget to time your trip so you can check out the Great Adirondack Moose Festival in Indian Lake. They even have a moose calling contest, which is inexplicably held indoors.
And if you're looking for Jesus, he's probably hanging around Schroon Lake somewhere.

Indian Lake is a sad, sad place.
I think the average age of that town is well into the 70s.

Moose calling just doesn't pull in the young'uns like it used to.

Sadder is the residents of Tupper still thinking they'll still be the Aspen of the ADK if only somebody will let them.

Speaking of Tupper, I wonder what the brothers Gaffney are up to these days. They grew up skiing there.

I'm sure the festival would welcome it. They certainly had a busy calendar of events in 2018: https://www.adirondackexperience.com...rogram2018.pdf
I want one of the tee shirts, but I don't actually want to go there. hmm.

Noonmark diner in general. Nothing like coming out a few days in the park heading there and having a huge burger and a shake. And a piece of pie of course.

the noonmark is a nice place but don’t you feel like maybe it’s coasting just a bit on its reputation?
the phoenicia diner, that place pushes the envelope for upstate dining.j'ai des grands instants de lucididididididididi

They do have new owners.... they just reopened a few weeks ago, they didn’t really adapt to the current situation like the rest of the stores in town.
It’s about a mile from my house, I’ll maybe eat there once a year. Maybe. It’s a greasy spoon. Good after a long hike or for a hungover greasy breakfast to soak up some booze.
We had a bunch of house guests last week and bought a few pies, the pies are still legit. And apparently they ship their pies across the us.
If any of you fellas are in KV hiking, I can provide free parking near the garden trailhead. Carry on with the upstate shenanigans

The Phoenicia diner is full on legit! Thanks for that recommendation when we were up there. Even had great cocktails.
Noonmark...I haven’t been there in 10 years plus at this point. No idea, just old, good memories.

Just an opinion, I've always thought central NY was Rt 17 turning west (Hancock-ish) through Corning and all points north. West of Corning was just, well, Salamanca.
Charlie, here comes the deuce. And when you speak of me, speak well.

The Roscoe Diner sux now.
Big Tupper was great, big trees, big bumps and big dumps. I got a great waist deep day there. The locals were all long ski fanatics so the bumps had great long troughs that you could float through. It just flowed from trail to trees and back depending on the terrain.

Well, it's still there if you want to hike.

I’m just glad the Roscoe Diner is more known than I would have thought with this crowd. Do agree it’s not all it once was.
If you’re ever driving through Hancock you MUST stop at Delaware Delicacies, or my preferred pseudonym “the eel man”
He’s got a weir set up on the east branch that he rebuilds every year to catch teh eels and other river eats. Pretty cool dude. I remember going there when I was like 10 and he was lecturing me on the importance of never drinking alcohol. Did the math out and everything - millionaire status easy attainable. I sure fucked that up.

Always used to eat at Roscoe Diner after driving home to Syracuse from Dead shows at the Garden. Those pies in the front case were like a foot tall...
Anyone else have any of those maroon bumper stickers?Last edited by rideit; 07-10-2020 at 10:55 PM.

Having the majority of my family in the Syracuse area, Roscoe's was a frequent stop. Has to be 20 years for me now easily.
