1932 Olympics Figure Skating arenaby Bwana_Brown -
A view of Mirror Lake from the townsiteby Bwana_Brown
Lake Placid has been host to two Winter Olympics - in 1932 and again in 1980. My wife was particularly interested in the figure skating hisory of these events and we had a chance to tour the skating arenas used for these two Olympics. Photo of the 1932 arena with the attachment to the 1980 arena just visable at the left.
We took a brief wander around the town after picking up a couple of submarine sandwiches for lunch. There are some quite impressive homes located along the backside of town, on the shores of Mirror Lake - a very scenic spot (2nd photo).
