Today we hiked the beautiful Sterling Lake loop. Iron ore was discovered here in 1736 and was subsequently mined and smelted until 1924. Iron from this particular mine forged the Hudson River chain and Lincoln’s canons. In 1998 it became a protected park. Perfect day and lovely vistas.
The Tower is 47.65 metre (156.3ft) tall, used to access underground mine lying more than 430 metre (1411ft) depth, built of unpainted reinforced concrete and was built from 1941 to 1943.
