Sabattis
Mitchell Sabattis (c. 1821 – April 16, 1906) was an Abenaki pioneer and guide in the Adirondack Mountains. He gained prominence as a guide for many well-to-do visitors to the Adirondacks as the mountains became a popular vacation destination in the late 19th century and was credited with the invention of the Adirondack guideboat. He was the first permanent settler of Long Lake, New York, and held various elected offices in the town as it grew. After his death, Sabattis was remembered by numerous place names in the Long Lake area, including a mountain, recreation area, Boy Scout camp, and railway station and associated hamlet.
