Known for its collection of resorts and millionaire mansions, the northern end of Lake George is the location of what fort famous for a 1775 Revolutionary War battle?

Fort Ticonderoga is situated at the very northern tip of Lake George, and just south of the very southern tip of Lake Champlain. That explains the name: "Ticonderoga" comes from the Iroquois word tekontaróken, meaning "it is at the junction of two waterways".
