"The sun today is still obscured by smoke and ashes. ... The heat is so intense and the smoke so dense, that the fighters cannot approach with two miles of the fires." ~ June 5, 1903, Watertown Daily Times
Kelly Burdick talks about the 1903 Adirondack fire that burned through 600,000 acres of the north country more than 100 years ago.
