They are better than us because they are not regulating themselves off the lake. Maybe we should look at them as a great example of what lake people should be!
Sunapee is good for kayaking.

No, wait...

Cow also has some elevation to it, and it's fairly large—the worst situation should a wildfire start. Hopefully, they have water availability and some kind of fire control.

BTW: Where does Cow get its drinking water?

(Guess I could have worded that last one better).

We have a well on the Idlewild side...please be careful with camp fires. Our friends place burned down a few years ago because of a cigarette butt
