Fort Ticonderoga is one of several reconstructed pre-revolutionary forts inside the blue line of Adirondack Park. The fort is located at the north end of Lake George, where the La Chute River drains Lake George into Lake Champlain. It was part of a historically important corridor between Canada, Lake Champlain, and the Hudson River, a busy place in colonial wars of the 18th century, when waterways were the primary means of conveyance.
