Debate over Adirondack road closures continues
Feb 22, 2011 — Debate and legal wrangling continue in the Adirondacks over who has the power and authority to close old town roads.
The flashpoint for the conflict is a road from Lake Placid to Keene that currently serves as part of the Jackrabbit ski trail.
But that case could have far-reaching implications for other roads in the Park.
