    Roster of the New York State Fire Tower Forest Fire Observers By Bill Starr State Director of the Forest Fire Lookout Association Forest Fire Observer – Pillsbury Mountain © Copyright 2009 Unpublished Work Roster of the New York State Fire Tower Forest Fire Observers Table of Content: Introduction…………………………………1 The Roster…………………………………...2 List of the NYS Fire Towers….....................56 February 2009 Fire Tower Inventory……..59 Fire Tower Location Map………………….60 Number of Fires Spotted Graph…………...60 Historical Notes on Certain Fire Towers….61 Roster of the NYS Forest Fire Observers from the payroll file of the Bureau of Forest Fire Control 1911 – 1972 © Copyright 2009 Unpublished Work by Bill Starr The following roster of the New York State Forest Fire Observers was compiled from the index card payroll file of the Bureau of Forest Fire Control from 1911 through 1972. Although at least half of the fire towers operated beyond 1972 payroll records for that period do not seem to exist and the likelihood that any of these records might be found are remote. For that reason this is an incomplete accounting of all the Observers, but it is the most comprehensive source available. Dates are provided for the Observers who staffed the fire towers in the Adirondack and Catskill regions beyond 1972 which were obtained from the books by Martin Podskoch; The Catskill Fire Towers; Their History and Lore and The Adirondack Fire Towers; Their History and Lore - Northern and Southern Districts. Yet these records too are incomplete as they are from the recollections of the people interviewed by Mr. Podskoch.

Because the resources of these areas can withstand more human impact, these areas should accommodate much of the future use of the Adirondack forest preserve. The scenic attributes and the variety of uses to which these areas lend themselves provide a challenge to the recreation planner. Within constitutional constraints, those types of outdoor recreation that afford enjoyment without destroying the wild forest character or natural resource quality should be encouraged. Many of these areas are under-utilized. For example the crescent of wild forest areas from Lewis County south and east through Old Forge, southern Hamilton and northern Fulton Counties and north and east to the Lake George vicinity can and should afford extensive outdoor recreation readily accessible from the primary east-west transportation and population axis of New York State.” Adirondack Park State Land Master Plan, November 1987, Updated 2001 edition Clearly, a delicate balancing act is called for, and yet just as clearly, the Department’s management focus must remain on protecting the natural resources.

CUOMO JOE MARTENS Governor Commissioner Public comments will be accepted on this draft UMP until November 15, 2013 Date of acceptance of draft EIS: October 16, 2013 Lead Agency: New York State Departement of Environmental Conservation 625 Broadway Albany, NY 12233 For Further Information Contact: Josh Clague New York State Department of Environmental Conservation 625 Broadway, 5th Floor Albany, NY 12233 Phone: (518) 473-9518 [email protected] October 2013 This page intentionally left blank Executive Summary This Unit Management Plan (UMP) represents the culmination of a long, dynamic, and at times, controversial planning process surrounding the fire observation tower atop Saint Regis Mountain. An historic structure dating back to 1918, the tower, and many others like it throughout the state, played a critical role in helping the Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) and its predecessors fulfill their mission to protect the state’s natural resources. The tower was formally discontinued for use by DEC for its intended purpose in 1990. Even before being closed, the tower had been identified in the 1972 Adirondack Park State Land Master Plan (SLMP) as a non‐conforming structure in a wilderness setting. In 2010, because of a growing recognition of the tower’s significance under the State Historic Preservation Act (SHPA), and in response to numerous public comments received by DEC and the Adirondack Park Agency (APA) in support of the structure, the SLMP was amended and the land around the tower was reclassified to create the Saint Regis Mountain Fire Tower Historic Area, thereby allowing the tower to remain in its original location.

  • Forest Fire Lookout Association New York State Chapter June 2021
    Forest Fire Lookout Association New York State Chapter June 2021 Some wonderful, even astronomical events happened this month in New York. First, we had our monthly photo contest on our very active Facebook page (we began the year with 755 members and now have 861 – some of this is related to new Facebook settings). One of our relatively new volunteers, Jessica, submitted a photo her brother took of Hadley Mountain Fire Tower with a wonderful, starry backdrop and that was our contest winner for June! This photo seen here also graces the cover of our Facebook page through July 15th. Thanks for submitting this Jessica, and thanks to your brother, CT Ware, for being in the right place at the right time! We appreciate all of the people who participate in this monthly contest. Then we had a partial annular eclipse on the 9th, which was visible in most NYS locations. We set out at 5 AM to get a glimpse of it from a nearby fire tower, but some recent road closures due to flash flooding had us taking a new route to our destination, Utsayantha. On one road, we could see the fire tower and the sun pillar up ahead, so we decided to stop right there and take in the view. It was wonderful to see, a lovely sunrise, a great sun pillar and the eclipse (viewed through our eclipse glasses). Later that morning on our Facebook page, we were fortunate to see some photos from other locations. This one from Julian Diamond taken of the Stissing Fire Tower captured our eye!
