The Wakely Dam

|

There are no posted weight restrictions on this dam, and people regularly bring their fifth wheel campers across it. That said, the Albany bureaucrats in the DEC wants to close off vehicular access, because they don't believe the public should be allowed to camp on their own lands, especially not in something like a pickup truck or an RV.
