Title

Man made pond at Dun Logging Campground

What occurred

This pond dug in 1975 is part of the Dun Logging Campground on the Great Sacandaga Lake. When it was created it caused a good deal of trouble with environmental protection agencies for the camp owner. Today the land use regulations still impact the pond as on the far side of the image you can see a cleared area. The new owner of the campground was fined heavily for cutting more than necessary around the pond.
