Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compelling story of our ever-evolving relationship with mountains and wilderness. Thirty years after its initial publication, this beloved classic is back in print. Superbly researched and written, Forest and Crag is the definitive history of our love affair with the mountains of the Northeastern United States, from the Catskills and the Adirondacks of New York to the Green Mountains of Vermont, the White Mountains of New Hampshire, and the mountains of Maine. It’s all here in one comprehensive volume: the struggles of early pioneers in America’s first frontier wilderness; the first ascent of every major peak in the Northeast; the building of the trail networks, including the Appalachian Trail; the golden era of the summit resort hotels; and the unforeseen consequences of the backpacking boom of the 1970s and 80s. Laura and Guy Waterman spent a decade researching and writing Forest and Crag, and in it they draw together widely scattered sources. What emerges is a compelling story of our ever-evolving relationship with the mountains and wilderness, a story that will fascinate historians, outdoor enthusiasts, and armchair adventurers alike. Laura Waterman and Guy Waterman (1932–2000) volunteered for the United States Forest Service and for hiking and conservation organizations, maintaining the Franconia Ridge Loop for almost two decades. They were awarded the American Alpine Club’s 2012 David R. Brower Award for outstanding service in mountain conservation, and the Waterman Fund to preserve wildness and service the alpine areas across the Northeast was established in 2000. Laura and Guy wrote numerous articles and books on the outdoors, including The Green Guide to Low-Impact Hiking and Camping, Wilderness Ethics: Preserving the Spirit of Wildness, and Yankee Rock & Ice: A History of Climbing in the Northeastern United States. Laura’s memoir, Losing the Garden: The Story of a Marriage, recounts their thirty years of homesteading.

Download or read book Panther Gorge written by Kevin MacKenzie and published by MudRat Publications. This book was released on 2019-08-13 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Panther Gorge explores the history one of the most remote regions in New York's Adirondack High Peak region. Two thousand feet deep and riddled with sheer cliffs, the chasm lies between Mts. Marcy and Haystack, the state's first and third highest points. A surprisingly rich history begins on a pathless landscape and includes visits by the earliest Adirondack pioneers including surveyor Verplanck Colvin, guides O.S. Phelps and Jim Goodwin, author Alfred B. Street, and a host of others. Panther Gorge also documents the author's explorations into the region during the period from 2009-2018 to pioneer new rock and ice climbs. Detailed narratives, over 170 color photographs, maps, and route plates allow the reader to vicariously experience one of the most mysterious places in the Adirondack high country.

Download or read book Adirondack Portraits written by Jeanne Robert Foster and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 1986-09-01 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adirondack Portraits: A Piece of Time is a moving poetic statement about the Adirondack wilderness and the people who fought the mountains’ relentless environment to settle there at the end of the nineteenth century. The book is also about the remarkable Jeanne Robert Foster (1879–1970). Born in poverty in the Adirondacks, as a young woman she emerged in the center of the literary and artistic circles of her day, an associate of Ford Madox Ford, James Joyce, Ezra Pound, T. S. Eliot, and the Yeatses, father and son. Adirondack Portraits gives us a glimpse into the early life of Jeanne and some of the influences that helped her step from a harsh physical existence into the unforgettable world of New York, Paris, and London in the 1920s. Above all, her poems and prose pieces are, in the words of Alfred Kazin, “an attempt to recover a vanished time, to record with love and admiration and enduring wonder a life of hardship, endless exertion, and perhaps above all, the kind of isolation that used to dominate country life in America.”

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.
