## Description

Twice Olympic, never freight: the Adirondack Regional Airport near Saranac Lake serves the mountain country around Lake Placid, host of the 1932 and 1980 Winter Games, with a few subsidized scheduled flights. The field sits inside the six-million-acre Adirondack Park, the largest protected area in the contiguous United States. Cargo facilities have never existed here; air freight for the mountains routes through Albany, Burlington or Montreal and trucks in over the passes. In deep winter, the snowplows log more runway time than the airplanes.
