Lyon Mountain, Mountain summit in Clinton County, New York, US.
The 1170-meter tall Lyon Mountain features a recently constructed trail through northern hardwood forests of beech, ash, and maple trees.
In 1910, forest rangers established a lookout station on the mountain's summit, followed by the construction of a steel fire tower in 1917.
The mountain received its name from Nathaniel Lyon, an early settler who moved from Vermont to the mountain's base in 1803.
Hikers access the 7-mile round trip trail from the parking area on Lowenberg Road, located off County Route 29 near Chazy Lake.
From the fire tower, visitors observe Chazy Lake, Vermont's Green Mountains, Montreal's skyline, and Adirondack High Peaks across the landscape.
