Essex County

Essex County is a county located in the U.S. state of New York. As of the 2010 census, the population was 39,370. Its county seat is Elizabethtown. Along with Hamilton County, Essex is entirely within the Adirondack Park.

Essex County is in the northeastern part of New York State, just west of Vermont along the eastern boundary of the State. The eastern boundary of Essex County is Lake Champlain, which serves as the New York – Vermont border at an elevation of just under 100 feet (30.5 m). The highest natural point in New York, Mount Marcy at 5,344 feet (1,629 m), is in the Town of Keene. The Ausable River forms a partial northern boundary for the county.

Crane Pond

Despite having such controversy and being where Crane Pond Road ultimately ends, it's a quite unremarkable pond.

Rowboat Tied Up

I have no idea who carried the row boat out here, or if the person is around, but it was left here in the wilderness. It was probably carried over the canoe carry at Crane Pond (which can be accessed by 4x4 truck).
