Augur-Lake
is a lake located by the north town line of Chesterfield, a community in Essex County. The town of Chesterfield has a population of 2,409 and is situated in the northeastern part of the county, south of the city of Plattburgh. Much of the town of Chesterfield is within the Adirondack Park. Lake Champlain is only a short drive away. Augur Lake is nestled between Poke-O-Moonshine Mountain, which has 1,100-million year-old walls that resemble a gothic cathedral, and the Ausable Chasm, famous for its whitewater deep gorge. This is a peaceful agricultural area, as well, with farms that offer organic eggs, dairy and produce. Many natural springs, waterfalls, lakes and streams dot the countryside. Adirondack Park is the largest state park in the U.S., with 6.1 million acres, although more than half of the land is privately owned and includes several villages and hamlets, such as Chesterfield. Outdoor activities abound in the Augur Lake region, including fishing and boating, swimming, hiking, rafting, horseback riding, mountain biking and golf. In the wintertime, nearby Lake Placid and Whiteface Mountain, home of the 1980 Winter Olympics, offers skiing, snowboarding, sledding and tubing and ice skating.

Augur Lake Weather & Climate
|
|
|
The Adirondack Mountains, near Saranac Lake and Lake Placid, enjoys four specific seasons with winters that are crisp, cold and snowy and warm, pleasant summers with low humidity. In spring and autumn, the days are warm and the evenings cool, perfect for viewing the wildflowers of April or the colors of fall. The average summer temperature is 75 F (24 C) and the average low is 50F (10 C); winter's average high is 27 F (-3 C) and the average low is 5 F (-15 C). The annual precipitation is 39 inches, keeping the forests green and the lakes and streams flowing. As with most mountain climates, the weather can change quickly, however, so be prepared. A sunny day can turn stormy very quickly in the higher elevations. Luckily, the Adirondacks do not experience the devastation of tornadoes, earthquakes or hurricanes as do some other areas of the country. There is no specific rainy season; rather there are both wet and dry spells in every season.
