Heading Back Towards Alder Lake Dam ...

The dam is a pretty white cement. I do not know how old it is, but it may date to prior it being a Boy Scout camp, and may have been done that color to be nicer looking for the Alder Lake Lodge.

Located in the southwest corner of the Catskill Park, Balsam Lake Mountain Wild Forest contains more than 13,500 acres of "forever wild" Forest Preserve.
