Historic Adirondack Park lodge could be removed to make way for day-use area

Debar Lodge, a 1940 Adirondack camp on the State and National Register of Historic Places, could be removed as part of proposed management changes to the more than 88,000-acre Debar Wild Forest Area in Franklin County.

The Adirondack Park Agency and the state Department of Environmental Conservation are both collecting public comments on a number of changes, including the camp’s removal, through Nov. 12.
