Fishing Brook Range
Fishing is the activity of trying to catch fish. Fish are often caught as wildlife from the natural environment, but may also be caught from stocked bodies of water such as ponds, canals, park wetlands and reservoirs. Fishing techniques include hand-gathering, spearing, netting, angling, shooting and trapping, as well as more destructive and often illegal techniques such as electrocution, blasting and poisoning. The term fishing broadly includes catching aquatic animals other than fish, such as crustaceans (shrimp/lobsters/crabs), shellfish, cephalopods (octopus/squid) and echinoderms (starfish/sea urchins). The term is not normally applied to harvesting fish raised in controlled cultivations (fish farming). Nor is it normally applied to hunting aquatic mammals, where terms like whaling and sealing are used instead. Fishing has been an important part of human culture since hunter-gatherer times, and is one of the few food production activities that have persisted from p ...

In 1910, a wood fire lookout tower was built on the mountain. In 1916, it was replaced with a 50-foot-tall (15 m) steel tower.

History In June 1910, the Forest, Fish and Game Commission built an wood tower on the mountain. At that time of telephone line was laid to the summit so that the observer could report fires quicker. In 1916, the Conservation Commission replaced the wood tower with a Aermotor LL25 tower. The tower was built lighter than the 1917 design and had no stairs but only a ladder up the exterior to get to climb the tower. Wood steps were added within the structure in 1918 or 1919, for easier access. In 19 ...
