Miracle on Ice, Olympics 1932 & 1980


We traveled to Lake Placid NY today.  What a beautiful setting.  We hiked a couple miles around Mirror Lake and then hiked 1.3 miles up White Mountain to an overlook (pictures attached).  We watched some future Olympic hopefuls practice their ski jumping skills into a pool (I will try to attach some of the videos) and walked into the Ice Arena where the Miracle on Ice happened in 1980.  We took a ride over to White Mountain Ski resort and the hills look treacherous.  I am attaching pictures for you to see.  If you ever get in the vicinity of Lake Placid I would recommend you plan on spending at least a day.
