In 2019 Black Rock Forest, along with SayCel Inc., upgraded the Black Rock Forest radio telemetry data network to a wireless mesh wi-fi network through a Field Stations and Marine Laboratories Infrastructure grant from the National Science Foundation. The network is comprised of a series of towers and mesh nodes located at various spots throughout the Forest which provides limited wi-fi access. Anyone interested in incorporating their sensors and equipment into the network can contact Kate Terlizzi or visit our mesh network website for more information.
Black Rock Forest will be closed to the public from November 16 - December 8, 2024, for NYS Regular Deer Season for hunting
