Tent Platform Permit No. 1653 was held or shared by Howard Baumann, my grandfather.
It was located on Norway Point, south side of Boot Bay, Lower Saranac Lake. we stayed there every summer in the late 60s and early 70s. the last time visiting the platform tent was Aug 1974
I have a 1964 version of this wonderful map, "The Saranac Lakes and Fish Creek Campsite Region of the Adirondack Mountains", R. G. Dustin
