On the way to Fort Ticonderoga, we drove up the Vermont side of Lake Champlain. Of course, this meant that we had to cross Lake Champlain to get to the fort, which is on the New York Side. To do so we took the Ticonderoga Ferry, which describes itself as follows:

The Ticonderoga Ferry provides historic, scenic seven-minute daytime crossings on Lake Champlain between Ticonderoga, New York and Shoreham, Vermont. Connecting the Lake George and Adirondack regions of New York, with the Middlebury and central Green Mountain areas of Vermont. We are located at 4831 VT Rte 74 just off of NY Rte 22 in Ticonderoga, New York and off of VT Rte 22A via VT Rte 73 in Orwell or VT Rte 74 in Shoreham, Vermont.

The ride was quite pretty, but short and a little slow (important to me because I needed to relieve myself). Although I wasn’t focusing too well, I recall that it was also rather expensive. On the way back from the fort we decided to take a different route that didn’t involve taking ferries.
