Sargent Ponds Wild Forest 📍

In the distance is Saranac Lake and Lake Placid, with Whiteface just beyond it. Not the clearest or nicest of days, but still visable. In the foreground is the col/shoulder of Owls Head.

Just sitting back and looking south from the open rock face a top Owls Head.

The fire tower is a 30 foot LS 45 Aermotor tower, pretty typical for NY State. It's one of the short little towers, like also seen on Rondaxe Mountain in Eagle Bay.

This is looking south from the summit towards Forked Lake Campground and possibly Racquette Lake. The mountain in the distance is Wakely Mountain, one of the other fire towers originally used to pin-point fires in the Adirondacks (it takes two towers to locate a fire through triangulation).
