Azure Mountain Fire Tower

Azure Mountain is a 2,518-foot (767 m) mountain near Blue Mountain Road in the Town of Waverly, Franklin County, New York, in the Adirondack Park in the US. It is the site of a 35-foot (11 m), steel fire tower built in 1918 that was restored in 2002.[1] The Azure Mountain Fire Observation Station was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001.[2] An estimated 8,000 to 10,000 people visit Azure Mountain each year. The Azure Mountain Friends have established the Azure Mountain Friends Scholarship, which awards at least one high school senior a $350 scholarship towards attending college.
