Salmon Lake Mountain
Salmon Lake Mountain is a 2,500-foot-tall (760 m) summit located in Adirondack Mountains of New York. It is located west of the hamlet of Long Lake in Hamilton County. Around 1933, a 35-foot-tall (11 m) Aermotor LX24 tower was built on the mountain. The tower was privately owned, but cooperated with the Conservation Commission for fire watching operations. The tower still remains, but is in poor condition and is not open to the public.
