    Fire outlook towers

    There were a lot of them here in the Adirondacks but with the advent of the Adirondack Park Agency and the classification of many areas as Primitive or Wilderness they have been torn down so only a few remain. There was one near Pharoah Lake that we would visit as kids. Love talking to the...
