TRANSPORTATION 
THE conditions at Ne-Ha-Sa-Ne Park are very favor- 
able for forest management, and in no way more so 
than in its accessibility to the market. The Park is 
crossed by the Adirondack and St. Lawrence Railroad, 
which affords an outlet for the timber to various saw- 
mills located at no great distance, as at Tupper Lake 
on the north and Beaver River on the south, and the 
other mills scattered along the line. 
There is a system of roads and trails throughout the 
Park which could be enlarged and adapted for logging 
without great expense, by which the timber could be 
hauled totherailroad. East of the railroad alarge part of 
the Spruce can be floated directly to the jack works near 
Keepawa, and the hardwood can be hauled on the ice 
in winter to the same point. In general the timber is 
not difficult of access. A portion of the Park is swampy, 
and there it would be necessary to build corduroy 
roads. The hills are not very high and present no 
serious difficulty forthe lumberman. On a portion of 
the Park north of the railroad the logs w 
be hauled a considerable distance 
grade. Work in the woods, as 
of the forest against fire, be geeatlyafacititgtgde by
