NEWCOMB - The story of one of the most important historic sites in the
Adirondack Park is being told anew.

This fall, the ribbon was cut on the first phase on a series of
trails, platforms and interpretive panels designed to highlight the
former mining village of Adirondac, located at the end of a long,
dead-end dirt road on the southern side of the High Peaks Wilderness.
It's a joint effort involving the state Department of Environmental
Conservation, the Open Space Institute, the town of Newcomb and other
stakeholders.

There's still more that has to be done to preserve and interpret the
site, but those behind the effort are hopeful that their work will
give people a better understanding of its importance and draw more
visitors to the area.
