This is Chimney Bluffs State Park on the shore of Lake Ontario, near the town of Sodus, in case you want to look for it on Google Earth. It is an astounding landscape. We walked for a mile at the very edge of a cliff that was undercut by erosion. The Bluffs were formed from drumlins, which were created by glaciers. The wind, rain, snow, and waves, both from above and below has formed the landscape into razor-sharp pinnacles. Some are as tall as 150 feet from the lake shore. The panorama is ever changing - the average erosion of the bluffs is 1 to 5 feet a year. And would you look at the color of the lake! Those are the actual, natural colors of the water.
