RAY BROOK - Supporters of preserving a pair of historic Adirondack
mountaintop fire towers say their long battle is almost over.

The state Adirondack Park Agency board is expected to vote next month
on a plan to upgrade, interpret and allow full public access to the
Hurricane Mountain fire tower in the town of Keene and the St. Regis
Mountain fire tower in the town of Santa Clara. If the agency approves
the unit management plans for the two towers, it would mark the end of
a more than 10-year effort to save the towers, which at one point had
been slated for removal by the state Department of Environmental
Conservation.
