Adirondack Homeland Rock at Crane Pond Road

Crane Pond Road is a road quite a bit of history, with the Adirondack's version of the Sagebush Rebellion. A brief history: "In 1990, a group of men wearing masks removed the boulders and vowed to keep the road open. Members of Earth First, a radical environmental group, later pitched tents at the start of road to keep out vehicles. Footage later aired on a 60 Minutes piece about violence against environmentalists."

Fallen Trees Will Impede Travel Sign on Crane Pond Road

Something to keep in mind. Not that I'm sure what would do if they where back here after a t-storm caused significant blow-down and left their truck stuck back there.
