History
This boat launch on the shore of Mossy Point is part of the Henry Knox Cannon Trail Monuments in New York. Early in the American Revolutionary War, Colonel Henry Knox's "noble train of artillery" went from Crown Point to the Continental Army camp outside Boston, Massachusetts. Now, it is a network of roads and paths to commemorate this heroic deed.
