This book was released on with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report represents the second volume of the Cultural Landscape Report (CLR) for the Historic Hiking Trail System of Mount Desert Island. This volume focuses more specifically on the 103 marked, maintained trails within the park, which extend over 118 miles (See Appendix B). This report is the culmination of several years of research, analysis, field inventory, and documentation necessary to synthesize voluminous information about the island’s extensive trail system. The intended audience for this document includes individuals who are extremely familiar with Acadia’s trails and are involved in the planning process as well as those who may be unfamiliar with the trail system and/or trail construction in general but may be involved in future trail rehabilitation efforts. As a result, this document relies heavily on graphics to complement and enhance the narrative. Numerous photographs and sketches are included to clarify the text, illustrate historic and existing conditions, and provide examples of both acceptable and unacceptable usage of specific trail features.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Acadia Trails Treatment Plan: Cultural Landscape Report for the Historic Hiking Trail System of Acadia National Park, Maine During World War II there was little use or mainte nance of the trails. In the first two decades after the war, park visitation increased dramatically, but trail use did not. This nationwide trend was attributed to the romance of auto - touring and camping. With new park roads and campgrounds at Blackwoods and Seawall, Acadia was an ideal motoring destination. Trails in close proximity to the roads and parking areas, such as the Ocean Path received the greatest use. Visitors rarely used the Recreational Development Areas on the island's western side at Pretty Marsh, Pine Hill, and Oak Hill, or the trails associated with them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NOTE: NO FURTHER DISCOUNT FOR THIS PRINT PRODUCT--OVERSTOCK SALE -- Significantly reduced list price while supplies last Documents the history and significance of the trail system on Mount Desert Island, Maine. Many of Acadia National Park's foot trails preceded the establishment of the park. The earliest pathmakers were Abenakis, who made trails for carrying canoes between lakes and for other practical reasons. European settlers later developed recreation trails. Summer visitors organized Village Improvement Associations and Village Improvement Societies, whose path committee volunteers created trails that were incorporated, in 1916, into the new Sieur de Monts National Monument, precursor to Lafayette National Park (1919). Ten years later, the protected area was renamed Acadia National Park. It was the first national park to have sprung full-blown from philanthropy. Volunteers and park crews, including President Franklin D. Roosevelt's Civilian Conservation Corps in the 1930s and early 1940s, expanded and maintained the trail system. Friends of Acadia was formed in 1986 to extend the philanthropic vision of the park founders. The organization later mounted Acadia Trails Forever, which matched $4 million in park entry fees with $9 million in private donations, to rehabilitate the footpaths over ten years. The model project made Acadia the first national park with an endowed trail system. Each era of trail building and its individual pathmakers utilized different construction styles, standards and aesthetic nuances. The job of today's professional trail crew and its legion of volunteers is to honor the pathmakers of old by replicating their construction signatures whenever possible. National parks, after all, are repositories of history and culture, and the Park Service's legal duty of care is to preserve these magnificent places "unimpaired for the use and enjoyment of future generations." Three important books guide Acadia's trail crews in that obligation: Preserving Historic Trails, the proceedings from an October 2000 conference of trail building experts from across the nation; this volume, Pathmakers: Cultural Landscape Report for the Historic Hiking Trail System of Acadia National Park (2005), a profusely illustrated history of trail building; and the second volume of the cultural landscape report, Acadia Trails Treatment Plan (2005), which lays out precise construction and maintenance techniques favoring the historically faithful preservation of Acadia's footpaths. These authoritative resources, and the park's Hiking Trails Management Plan, were compiled with input from one of the best kept secrets in the National Park Service, the Olmsted Center for Landscape Preservation, a coterie of landscape architects, historians and writers tucked away in Brookline, Massachusetts. The Olmsted staff collaborated over several years with Acadia's trail crew, one of the best in the 388-unit National Park System. Each year, the Acadia Trails Forever project brings more trails up to the rehabilitation standards set forth in the cultural landscape report. Previously neglected features such as iron work, granite steps, bog bridges, log stringers, water bars, rock drains. Bates-style cairns and other historic features are carefully redone or added, complementing Acadia's natural splendor. Audience Environmentalists, Historians, Educators, and Students would find it interesting to learn about the history of Acadia National Park and the people that work to preserve it.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pathmakers: Cultural Landscape Report for the Historic Hiking Trail System of Mount Desert Island, Acadia National Park, Maine; History, Existing Conditions, and Analysis Existing Conditions describes the configuration of the trail system at the time of this report, with an emphasis on the landscape characteristics and features of the trail system, such as topography and natural features, rather than individual trails. Individual trails are described in an associated database, a portion of which is included in the appendices. Analysis of Significance and Integrity investigates potential areas of significance for the trail system with respect to the National Register of Historic Places. This section addresses the trails as a system but focuses on those within park boundaries. The Analysis com pares findings from the Site history and existing condi tions to evaluate the historical integrity of the trail system, and identifies the significant characteristics of the trail system. The Significant characteristics provide the framework for treatment recommendations pre sented in the second volume.
