LAKE PLACID — The Cobble Hill trail in Lake Placid will be closed next week, Sept. 18-21, to allow a professional trail crew to do rock and drainage work. The trail will reopen Friday, Sept. 22.

The work is part of a multi-year effort to make the path safer and more enjoyable for hikers of a wide range of ages, experience and ability, according to the Adirondack Land Trust.

The project is funded by grants from the North Elba Local Enhancement and Advancement Fund, the New York State Conservation Partnership Program, and gifts from community members. It’s a collaboration between between Northwood School, the town of North Elba, ROOST, Paul Smith’s College, the Lake Placid 9’er hiking challenge, the Barkeater Trails Alliance, New York state Department of Environmental Conservation, ALT and private landowners.
