Default A Tale of Two Ridgelines

Having hiked around up on top of Pine Mt. (usually referred to as Alton Mt.) I can attest to the spectacular view of the lake from there. Many thanks to "Aunt Mary" for this spectacular gift!!

Yesterday after passing the Morse Farm and heading down the mountain I was struck by the view of the other side of the bay (the east side of Alton Bay). I recently posted about the proposed 42 lot subdivision planned over there. Although the permits are still not in place it appears that the developer has done about everything he can do to ready the land for development including road-building and lots of tree clearing....and what ever happened to the proposed cell phone tower?

Here's a shot taken by dcr from photopost looking NE from the top of Pine Mt.

"Looking NE over the northerly portion of Alton Bay to mountains of northern NH. L to R, the 4 islands seen are Parker, Ship, Little Mark and Moose"
