EQUINOX MOUNTAIN
Vermont - Bennington County
1912: "Arrangements have been made to establish a lookout station for the summer of 1912 on Equinox Mountain equipped with wireless. Fires will be reported by wireless to a base station where the operator will telephone to the warden in the town where the fire is located. This is largely experimental and is carried on with Government money in the hope that this method of reporting fires will prove workable and prove more economical than building telephone lines throughout forest regions."
