Rattlesnake Island

John A. Birdsall · 03-30-2011, 12:20 PM

I can recall as a younger person back in the early 60's of four of us taking the Puddy-Tat into the cove on the sW part of rattlesnake, and tying it too a tree, We then spent the better part of the afternoon climbing rattlesnake. There were not very many camps on the island at that time. Today it would be nice if the residence there would build a public dock, and have an escalatore to the top of the island for all to see.

The center of the island is owned in common by all of the owners of the lots surrounding the island. The trust owns a large lot on the south east end. We pay the town of Alton property taxes and also pay for liability insurance for the common land in the middle.

A lookout like Abenaki Tower would be nice too!
