New bookstore adds to the momentum in the village of Westport A pair of recent transplants from Atlanta is breathing new life into a century-old former hardware store with a new bookstore called Snowfort.

Snowfort, a new bookstore in Westport, is adding momentum to the village. Owners Amy and Adam Robinson have been hosting pop-up events this month, with the final one this Sunday.

A deep snowshoe trek to Inman Gulf on the Tug Hill Plateau Barnes Corners is home to beautiful Inman Gulf and Rainbow Falls, and after last week's lake effect snowstorm, five feet of snow.

If you’re looking for snow in northern New York right now, the Tug Hill Plateau is the place to be. Check out beautiful Rainbow Falls and Inman Gulf. You can snowshoe in deep snow along the rim of this deep chasm. Super cool trail www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/5...

Saranac Lake river park back on track and looking for community input The Boothe River Park has been a dream since 2016. After a lot of delays, proponents of the park are hoping to get it back on track.
