Fort Edward is down Route 4 from there, the county seat, where the Champlain Canal comes into the Hudson and the train still stops.
About 5 minutes over the Hudson. Park in the Cooper Street lot at The Shirt Factory.

Tortex (treated Delrin), standard 351 shape. 12 picks, .50 mm. We carry the Dunlop 418P.50 - Tortex Standard Picks, .50mm 12-Pack at $5.99.

If You're Starting Out
Start with a medium. It bends enough to forgive a heavy hand on strumming and holds up enough for single notes. Move thinner if you mostly strum, heavier if you mostly pick. There's more for new players in how to choose your first guitar.
