I hope so... I have a rubbing of that somewhere. It might still be in storage.

As the resident road-fan of UER, I'd have to say this is easily one of the more interesting traffic control devices I've seen.

Well Samauri here says the county owns the road up to there for some odd reason...

up to the gate... not the obelisk of doom... after the gate, it's all private.

Yeah, old man Mac himself even had himself a wooden rail/causeway over lake sally, don't know what that accomplished except that it might have been pre dam era. Did you know the boats were still there in the twenties? And in the teens they were still messing with ore near sanford lake, complete with separating plant? Well that's apparently gone now too as NL poured so much tailings into Sanford lake. Great resource if you can find it; the story of Adirondak; printed in the twenties, reprinted in the '60's by the BMLM, bought off Amazon for like thirty bucks, it's boring but a treasure trove of Mac Mine/Tahawus club history, right down to the name of the guy that forged the pistons for the smelter, and it's cost (38000 bucks in the 1800's"
