Download or read book Family Friendly Waterfall Hikes in the Adirondacks written by John Haywood and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2022-10-29 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 156 pages B&W. While I enjoyed learning history, and appreciated authors' opinions of places, I always thought it would be nice to only have just what I needed to get to where I wanted to go so I could maximize my adventures. I also thought about having to decipher directions that had only one starting point. Therefore, using my years of hiking adventures and waterfall visits, I created an easy-to-use, no frills guide with scannable QR codes to get directions and navigation from Google Maps. I cut through the clutter to bring you a "no-frills", straight to the point guide that gives you only the information you need to get you there. This guide was created for those who are interested in the easier waterfall hikes, including roadside, and for those who would also like to explore other areas of the over six-million-acre Adirondack Park. This compilation of easy to moderate hikes, suitable for average hikers, that will lead to notable, as well as underappreciated, Adirondack waterfalls.

Book Synopsis Big Moose Lake in the Adirondacks by : Jane A. Barlow
Download or read book Big Moose Lake in the Adirondacks written by Jane A. Barlow and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2004-06-01 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Big Moose Lake in the Adirondacks is the lively and well documented story of the growth of the lake side community made famous by the incident that inspired Theodore Dreiser's An American Tragedy. The rich history of the lake unfolds with stories of its early residents, hunters, and guides—Jim Higby, Billy Dutton, Henry Covey, and Bill Dartin—the late 1870s, of the lake's ownership by William Seward Webb, of the construction of the first private camp—Club Camp—in 1878, and the coming of hotels and resorts beginning in 1880 with the construction of Camp Crag. From a time when a telephone number was a simple "8F6" and the "pickle boat" brought supplies to camp, to more recent stories of exuberant waterskiing and motorboat regattas, the book includes a detailed history and descriptions of the camps and resorts on the lake, persons and celebrities who made the lake their year-round or seasonal home—including actress Minnie Maddern Fiske and artist David Milne—natural disasters and political events, recreation, and the work of the Big Moose Property Owners Association. This is the story of Big Moose Lake brought to life by more than 275 family photographs, antique postcards, and previously unpublished memoirs, oral histories, diary entries, and the personal correspondence of the men and women who settled the area and of those who call it home.
Book Synopsis Adirondack Fifty Falls Challenge by : Russell Dunn
Download or read book Adirondack Fifty Falls Challenge written by Russell Dunn and published by . This book was released on 2019-04-11 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Fifty Falls Challenge was created to help draw visitors away from the High Peaks Region to areas less-visited. While there are numerous waterfalls in the High Peaks Region, many are hard to get to. By good fortune, the majority of the more easily accessible waterfalls and cascades fall outside of the High Peaks. By creating the Fifty Falls Challenge, the hope is that it will help ease some of the strain of overcrowding in the High Peaks; that it will allow hikers to discover other fun and exciting areas of the Adirondacks; and that participants, taking on the challenge, will visit local businesses and help out those economies.

Every season has its own charm, all portrayed here in this one of a kind volume of history and photography along Adirondack trails. This is a book for anyone who enjoys travelling through the Adirondack backcountry and includes unique and picturesque destinations throughout the Adirondack Park in addition to a comprehensive history on hiking in the Adirondacks. From the dramatic beauty of the Lake George Wild Forest, to numerous fire tower summits and open ledges and mountaintops scattered around the park, and the rugged splendor of the High Peaks and bucolic beauty of the Champlain Valley, this book covers it all.

Barbara McMartin has been hiking in the Adirondacks for decades; her family, for generations. She has distilled her vast experience into the 50 hikes offered here, representing a cross-section of the wilderness and wild forest: rugged peak climbs, gentle trips to distant waterfalls, bushwhacks to wild rivers. In all she describes 360 miles of trails to caves, uninhabited lakes, wetlands, cliffs, and fire towers across the Park's 6 million acres. The hikes range in length from 1.5 to 13.5 miles. Each hike description includes a topographic map, mile-by-mile directions, and information on distance, difficulty, terrain, and hiking time. An overview chart makes it easy to pick a hike for every ability. Throughout, McMartin provides commentary on the natural history of the region, along with colorful incidents from Adirondack history.
