Two key forts that guarded the valley route between the colonies were Fort Ticonderoga and Fort Crown Point. Located on Lake Champlain in New York, Fort Ticonderoga was strategically important during the French and Indian War and the American Revolutionary War. Fort Crown Point, situated nearby, served as a military stronghold and watchpoint for controlling access to the lake and the surrounding territories. Together, these forts played crucial roles in the defense and military strategy of the colonial forces.
