Our study makes projections, based on ski industry statistical data, assessing the monetary impact of the development on the regional economy, which appears to be significant. It does not contain an analysis of the cost of constructing the interconnect. The Hamlet of North Creek and Gore Mountain have a rich skiing history. Many ofthe first ski trails were created from the old tote roads used to extract lumber and garnet ore on the area now referred to as the "Ski Bowl." This section ofthe mountain, opening in 1932, became one ofthe first ski areas in the country. In this era, skiers from Manhattan and beyond were delivered to North Creek by ski train.

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.
