Lake Champlain forms the entire eastern boundary of the Adirondack Park — 120 miles of shoreline from Whitehall north to the Canadian border, with the bulk of the named bays, boat launches, and state campgrounds concentrated in the broader basin north of Ticonderoga. The lake holds every species you'd expect in a massive, deep, cold-water system: landlocked salmon, lake trout, bass, pike, walleye, and a seasonal run of steelhead in the Boquet and Saranac tributaries. Most Adirondack access is via the string of DEC launch sites and campgrounds along NY-9N and NY-22 — Crown Point, Westport, Willsboro Bay, and Point au Roche among them. On a clear day from the High Peaks, Champlain is the blue line on the eastern horizon; from the lake itself, the peaks are a fifty-mile wall of granite running south from Whiteface.
