Saranac Lake, N.Y. – It’s not exactly “Cool hand Luke,” but it is cool.

In the Adirondack village of Saranac Lake, inmates broke ice on a frozen lake to make a giant winter palace.

A work crew from an area prison camp helped local volunteers again this year to create an ice palace.
 
The palace serves as the centerpiece for the annual Saranac Lake Winter Carnival, which starts Friday, February 1.
