As you climb that final bit up Owls Head, there is a ridge located above the little low spot where the Ranger's cabin is located between the col and Owls Head. The Ranger's cabin was probably located in such a lower elevation due to access to a spring.

While hazy today, you can see village of Long Lake quite well from the tower. It's always crazy there, and I try to avoid towns whenever I'm in the Adirondacks.

Again, just looking north towards the High Peaks and Saranac Lake region.
