Crystal lake is another beautifully located sheet of water, situ-ated at an elevation of one hundred and twenty-five feet above High-land lake, into which the surplus water from it flows. The waterfor the domestic purposes of the borough is conveyed from thislake at an expense of over $50,000. Piatt mountain is another attractive place for summer visitors.The summit of it, at an elevation of 1,600 feet, is easily approachedby a good carriage road, and on it is erected a tower fifty feet inheight, from the top of which are extensive views in all directions.This is a favorite place for picnic parties.

In West Winsted, Conn., a village well located in the Litchfield Hills, ninehundred feet above tide water, five miles from the famous Berkshires, arebeautiful drives in every direction ; no level stretch of country within manymiles—a succession of hills and mountains ; and as you ride or walk to theirsummit a new view presents itself, and instead of soon tiring of your sojournhere, you become enchanted with your surroundings, and wonder why youhad not been here before.
