Last of the Mohicans movie wasn't filmed anywhere near New York State. It was filmed in the south . . . Georgia, North Carolina, so something close. Look close and you'll see many trees and bushes that don't grow around here.

Am I'm sure you know that Buffalo is the "armpit" of New York State. NY starts looking much better once you leave it.

The story in the book, yes, in Cooper's New York.
I live 15 miles from Cooperstown, founded and named after Judge Cooper - the father or grandfather of James Fennimore Cooper, who wrote "Last of the Mohicans."
So, you're not going to see the same scenery as you did in the movie. Go the right places though, and our's is a lot better.

Good luck at Niagara Falls. Last time I went there, I felt like I was on another planet. Jammed with people (many wearing turbans), casinos, etc. Tough place to drive through, on either side of the border. I made the mistake of trying to drive though and get a peek at the falls. I got to see nothing.

Prettiest dairy country with medium mountains and rolling hills is Delaware and Otsego Counties (in my opinion). Prettiest mountain views that are unspoiled and undeveloped are in Hamilton County - Central Adirondacks. Indian Lake, Blue Mountain Lake, Racquette Lake, North Creek, Lake Pleasant, Speculator, etc. - all absolutey beautiful, unspoiled, and probably the best views in the entire state. If you want to see many dairy farms with huge windmills run through them, go the Tug Hill Plateau Jefferson/Lewis Counties. It's basically a huge mountain with the top cut off. Once you're up there, you don't know it.

I'm curious. What dairy country are you going to see? Or perhaps, I should say what "soon to be ex-dairy" country. They are disappearing pretty fast. We had over 50 just in our small town, 30 years ago. Now we've got 3-4 left that are actually milking cows.

If you venture to the central Adirondacks, check out the Wild Center in Tupper Lake. They've done an amazing job on it. Adirondack Museum is also pretty neat.

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga ...
