French Louie Loop! This is an awesome loop that brings you through a nice swath of the West Canadas, one of the most beautiful and serene sections of the Adirondack park. Named after the famous hermit and trader who spent years in the area, depending on what direction you do, the loop brings you by Pillsbury lake and Whitney lake before bringing you to the NPT to pass by the beautiful West and Cedar lakes. It's overall very flat with some rolling hills, and some sections where you can really open up your stride - pretty rare for the Adirondacks.
