A man in his late 50s was reported overdue last Tuesday after hiking Seward Mountain. Ten hours after the search began, rangers found the man at the Ouluska Pass lean-off along the Northville Placid trail. According to the DEC, the man was tired, but in good health.

A photo from the 1930s shows lumberjacks in the woods with log scaling tools, somewhere near Saranac Lake, NY.

The photo was donated by Ralph Kelly. You can view it in person at Historic Saranac Lake. For more work photos from around the region, go to ncpr.org/work.

A large sinkhole that appeared in early March on Rt. 56 has kept the main road between Tupper Lake and Potsdam closed for weeks.

It also revealed a much larger problem beneath the pavement that the NYSDOT says will keep the road closed "until early spring."
