This summer is the 100th Anniversary of the Kane Mountain Fire Tower and there will be several centennial events in the Town of Caroga this weekend. The public is invited to participate the events. The celebration will honor the tower as well as the observers and rangers who worked at the tower from 1925 until 1988 when the state turned to aerial surveillance to protect our forests. The celebration will also acknowledge the importance of the Fire Tower and trails to tourism and recreation in the Southern Adirondacks.
The centennial celebration for the Kane Mountain Fire Tower is being sponsored by the New York Chapter of the Forest Fire Lookout Association (FFLA), the Caroga Historical Museum and Association (CHM), the Town of Caroga, the Canada Lakes Conservation Association, Fulton Coun
