Group proposes new southern Adirondack wilderness

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — An environmental group has proposed establishing a new wilderness area in the southern Adirondacks combining almost 4,000 acres of timberland New York recently bought with about 9,000 acres of century-old state forest preserve.

Protect the Adirondacks says that designation, which prohibits motorized vehicles, fits since the area west of Great Sacandaga Lake has no roads.
