Morrow Mountain is a 2142feet mountain, and is the highest point in Madison County, New York. A 100feet communication tower occupies the summit. The mountain is the primary geographical feature of Morrow Mountain State Forest, a 1290acres state forest in the towns of Georgetown and Nelson.[1] The mountain is the former site of a 67feet steel fire lookout tower.
In 1940, the Civilian Conservation Corps Camp S-103 from DeRuyter built a 67feet International Derrick steel fire lookout tower on the mountain. Due to increased use of aerial fire detection, the tower ceased fire lookout operations at the end of 1970, and was later removed. Since then, a resident from New Hartford purchased the dismantled tower, and plans to rebuild it at their camp in Oppenheim.[2]
