Back in 1964, water pollution was much less regulated in New York State, and waste water from the toilet paper making process was dumped directly into Lake Champlain, leaving the area around Wilcox Dock looking very white in color on this Spring 1964 aerial photo.

Now state forest, I used to enjoy wandering back on the trails and fishing 🎣 the Saranac River behind the dam back when I was a student at Plattsburgh State.
