Coming back from my trip to Fourth Lake got me wondering about the elevations of some of the lakes that I fish around the state as well as some other places I've wanted to check out. I certainly didn't compile and exhaustive list of all of the places in the state but I am surprised that some of the places I visit in the most in Cattaraugus county are as high as some of the places in the ADK park. This is also going to put some of the madison county spots on my list for an out year. It's also very interesting to think about how much goes into temperatures around the state and the impacts of the big lakes and elevation being among them.
Putting in an html table isn't worth the effort, but this is kind of readable.
