Mauch smiled and poured another tequila. He insisted that not only had he heard of such a place, but could give me the exact location. I was all inebriated ears. After telling me the coordinates, and I did the calculations, I realized that not only was this place in New York, but actually in downtown Lake George. I was stunned. This past year, following the tipsy bar napkin scribblings of Professor Mauch, the I went in search of this amazing spot. And, believe it or not, found it. |

I have done some research, but no one in Lake George is talking about this spot. Local Indian legend says that it was the spot that an ancient god called Katchalototail had appeared at a long time ago and since then his wisdom still echoes around the lake. Indian gods, spatial displacement, weird acoustics...whatever causes this strange ringing reverberating sound, it is pretty amazing. So if your ever in the Lake George area, take a walk to the Mystery Spot. To find it you just have to head to where Canada Street and Million Dollar Beach come together. Walk east, along the lakeside of Million Dollar, for about a hundred feet or so and turn into the left, where the small stone wall offers a view of the lake. Look on the ground and you’ll see a giant ring that has a compass etched into it. Walk to the center and start yelling your head off. –Dr. Seymour O’Life You can read about all of New York’s unusual phenomena in our book Weird New York. |
