Northville is a village in Fulton County, New York. The population was 1,099 at the 2010 United States Census.
The Village of Northville is in the northern part of the Town of Northampton and is northeast of Gloversville. According to the United States Census Bureau, the village has a total area of 1.4 square miles (3.6 km2), of which, 1.1 square miles (2.8 km2) of it is land and 0.3 square miles (0.78 km2) of it (24.65%) is water.
The village is located at 43°13.5′N 74°10.5′W in the Adirondack Park on a northern extension of the Great Sacandaga Lake. The Sacandaga River enters the lake to the west the village.
The village is just east of New York State Route 30, connected to the highway by a bridge over the Sacandaga River, and is also serviced by County Roads 143, 149, and 153. Northville was the setting of a 1997 two-part episode of the television series The X-Files. In the two episodes, Tempus Fugit and Max, a passenger plane carrying a former alien abductee, crashed into the ground near the village of Northville. Mulder and Scully were called to investigate after reports of the plane being forced down by a U.F.O. The X-Files team investigates and soon discovers a UFO at the bottom of the Great Sacandaga Lake. The production was only set in Northville; it was not filmed there, although the production crew did research and contact the village government for specific information regarding police vehicles, maps, etc.[citation needed] The idea for this two-part episode is said to have been based on a Massachusetts Air National Guard plane crash that occurred on September 17, 1986 in the town of Wells, Hamiliton County, New York, which is approximately 10 miles north of Northville. Four planes were involved in the training mission and two of the four crashed into the Adirondack mountains killing one pilot and injuring the other

Northville Placid Trail 2018
New York’s Adirondack Park (6.1 million acres) is the largest state or national park in the United States outside of Alaska. It is only exceeded by the Gates of the Arctic (7.5 million acres) and Wrangell-St. Elias (8.3 million acres). This makes it bigger than Yosemite, Yellowstone, Glacier, Grand Canyon, and the Great Smoky Mountains National Parks combined. The Northville-Placid Trail goes through some of the most remote sections of the park. This video is about Gandalf's 2018 NPT thru-hike adventure.
Corrections:
West Canada Creek LT is incorrectly labeled Spruce Lake LT. There are several Spruce Lake LT's but this is not one of them.
West Canada Creek Bridge is incorrectly labeled Mud Creek Bridge. It is near where W. Canada Creek empties into Mud Lake.
What I labeled South Lake outlet is actually a bridge between Beaver Pond and Cedar Lake.

Snowmobiling in Speculator NY - Come Out and Play

From Wikipedia:
Speculator is a village in Hamilton County, New York, United States. The population was 324 at the 2010 census. 2,966-foot (904 m) Speculator Mountain rises just south of the village.
Speculator is the only incorporated village within Hamilton County and is within the town of Lake Pleasant. The village includes the northeastern end of a lake, also called Lake Pleasant. The local inhabitants sometimes refer to the village as the Four Corners, referring to the intersection of NYS Route 8 and NYS Route 30 in the middle of the business district.
Archaeological evidence of Native Americans has been found in arrowheads and spearheads near the shores of Lake Pleasant. Many historians believe Speculator was the hunting and fishing grounds of both Mohawk and Algonquin tribes. These Native Americans would only travel to the Adirondack Mountains to hunt during the warm months, while their villages were located in the Mohawk and Hudson Valley regions. There was a Mohawk, who named himself Captain Gill, who lived in a wigwam at the outlet of Lake Pleasant, during the end of the eighteenth century and the beginning of the nineteenth century. He had a wife named Molly, who had a daughter named Molly Jr., although Capt. Gill didn't claim the daughter as his own. Old Capt. Gill was a trail guide for the first settlers. He would show them places to hunt and fish. Capt. Gill was most famous for his storytelling of the Iroquois Nation, such as the Flying Head.
In 1892, a few ambitious and industrious business leaders felt they needed to update and modernize their facilities. Speculator was a booming Mecca for tourists. With the support of the voters in 1925, the village of Speculator was incorporated with a mayor and two trustees, which later changed to four trustees. The village of Speculator purchased a small water system of Dexter Slack and expanded it. The village had a generating plant and waterwheel installed at Christine Falls, and by 1926 they had electricity.
Growth escalated in the Victorian era between the mid-1800s and the early 1900s. Entire families spent their summers enjoying the mountain hospitality and fresh air. Several more hotels were built to accommodate them, and eventually more stores, homes and several cottages were built. Around the 1850s, city sportsmen began to come to the Adirondack Mountains to hunt, fish, and enjoy expeditions into the deep woods. They hired local men to be guides, who provided food and crude lean-tos for shelter. Hunting shanties were later widely used. With these sportsmen came their whole families to use the many hotels and boardinghouses in Lake Pleasant and Speculator. Private summer camps and cottages were built and along came the established family and children camps. Camps such as Camp-of-the-Woods, Camp Setag for girls, Kamp Kun-ju-muk for boys, the YMCA Camp Agaming, and Deerfoot Lodge for boys were established around the shores of local lakes. After World War I, famous athletes came to practice in the isolated communities, such as Gene Tunney, Max Schmeling, and Max Baer who arrived to train for the heavyweight championship fight.
Speculator calls itself the All Season Vacationland. A public beach is located in the village on the north lake shore. Free parking is available across the street from the beach. There is a baseball field, basketball court and large pavilion next to the parking lot. There is also a nature walk behind the pavilion.
Speculator Mountain, for which the village was named, lies just south of the village on Gilmantown Road, and is visible from most of the village. Oak Mountain is the location of the Oak Mountain Ski Center, located just north of the four corners.
The Grace Methodist Church Complex was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2015.

Villages at Turning Stone RV Campground with our 1973 Avion Trailer
The Pewter Palace traveled to Verona NY where we camped at this campground while I was attending a conference at the Casino's event center. Campground is very nice, spacious back in sites, FHU and reasonable rates. Not a high energy place, but relaxing. 24/7 on demand shuttle back and forth to casino, restaurants, etc is a great service.
