2010 Forest Fire Photo Page
On the Sunday of Memorial day weekend, smoke was seen all around the lake. After calling the Fire Department we were told that there were two causes for the smoke. First there were several forest fires in southern Quebec. The smoke was drifting down over a large portion of the Adirondacks. Second there was also a small forest fire about one half mile west of the causeway on Rt. 74 the fire damage was not visible but it can be seen from the lake.

Thanks to the Fire Fighters for their prompt and professional response to this emergency We would like to remind everyone to be careful when having a fire and to review open burning laws as they have change significantly in the past year. Please see the DEC website for more information or contact the respective Town Clerk. Photo's courtesy of Chris Hyde.
