exit
south of where you'd get on) and take Route 22/Route 374 West to pick
up Route 3 South to Saranac Lake. From Saranac Lake continue on Route 3
all the way to Watertown, where you can take I81 North to cross into Canada
to pick up 401.
This will take you through some great scenery (once the sun comes up) on
mostly
two lane roads that really highlight what a fine tourer the S6 is. Only
caveat is that
over the 4th and 5th there will be ZERO beds available around Lake Placid
and
Saranac Lake. There's a big rugby tournament every year. So you would need
to
either find accomodation further on, or sleep in the S6. Beware of extra
police
in the Saranac Lake area that weekend.
And watch out for critters, large and small, on those roads at night.
