For more than a century and a half, the town of North Elba has been one of the most visited places in the Adirondack region. Its proximity to the beautiful High Peaks region and Whiteface Mountain has made it a four-season vacation destination. North Elba and Whiteface Mountain contains more than two hundred rare photographs depicting the mountain, the village of Lake Placid, Mirror and Placid Lakes, Ray Brook, the Cascade Lakes, Pontiac Bay, and Wilmington Notch. Accompanied by detailed narrative, these historical views reveal the people, life, and events of the town from 1875 to 1950, among them Franklin Delano Roosevelt attending the Whiteface Mountain Memorial Highway opening in 1935.

Some of the northern Adirondacks' most beloved ski areas have sadly not survived the test of time despite the pristine powder found from the High Peaks to the St. Lawrence. Even after hosting the Winter Olympics twice, Lake Placid hides fourteen abandoned ski areas. In the Whiteface area, the once-prosperous resort Paleface, or Bassett Mountain, succumbed after a series of bad winters. Juniper Hills was "the biggest little hill in the North Country" and welcomed families in the Northern Tier for more than fifteen years. Big Tupper in Tupper Lake and Otis Mountain in Elizabethtown defied the odds and were lovingly restored in recent years. Jeremy Davis of the New England/Northeast Lost Ski Areas Project rediscovers these lost trails and shares beloved memories of the people who skied on them.

It is called "the Olympic Village," and rightly so. In 1932, Lake Placid hosted the third Winter Olympics, and in 1980 it hosted the thirteenth Winter Olympics. Lake Placid has placed an athlete on all but one winter Olympic roster since 1924. This small community continually works to keep international winter sports on the calendar. First settled as a farming community in 1800, it was home to the famous Lake Placid Club from 1895 to 1980. Today it is known for its beautiful setting amid the Adirondack peaks of New York and for its diverse summer activities making it a year-round international resort.
