Our Snail Tracks

High on the hill where Lake Champlain and Lake George meet, the French first built Fort Ticonderoga in 1755. It served a key role in the French and Indian War and the American Revolution. It was a gorgeous sunny day as we explored the area.

We got to experience an impressive reenactment of the British soldiers firing cannons.

We walked around the fort and visited the soldiers’ stone barracks.

My favorite area was the King’s Gardens. The gardens were used to produce all the food needed for residents of the fort. It is still an active garden today.
