I do hope they are attempting a little modernization and bringing things up to a minimum standard. All of Little Apple Bay/Capoons Bay from Sugar Mill to the top of Long Bay Hill is suppied by one transformer at the bottom of Zion Hill. I found only one fuse cutout in the whole area and the rats nests at the top of each pole and service drops draped over bushes are a sure way for anything more than a light breeze to cause a dead short kill power to the entire village. Carot Bay was the same except there were 2 transformers.

Romney Park/Cartpath area should have power available. The transformer is at the top of Zion Hill where the main feeded line from Pockwood Pond turns north down to the Little Apple transformers cross from the school. Whether they have got wire and service drops all the way back up into Romney Park is a different matter.
