*"My guides deposited their knapsacks in the shanty, and in a few minutes, we all stood on the margin of a beautiful lake. Aye beautiful, truly beautiful! A rosy light trembled on the water, which reflected in transparent shadow the bare savage cliff of Mt. Colden on our right, and the rich woods of Mt. McIntyre opposite, with a low leafy ridge to the north."

Alfred Billings Street, "The Indian Pass: Source of the Hudson", 1866
