Bob at Blue Mountain boat livery conducts a boat tour of Blue Mountain narrating an entertaining history of the lake and it's inhabitants both past and present. I will say nobody dislikes being trapped on a boat tour more than me. But this tour is an exception to that. We like the evening tour that begins around 6. Bring a bottle of wine and/or beer and some appetizers and enjoy the tour. Bob has been on this like over 4 decades and it an excellent tour guide. Very reasonably priced and well worth a visit.
