NYSDEC & AMR Pilot Reservation System
Updated 04/15/21 NYSDEC & AMR Pilot Reservation System DEC and the Adirondack Mountain Reserve (AMR) launched a no-cost pilot reservation system to address public safety at a heavily traveled stretch on Route 73 in the town of Keene in the Adirondack High Peaks. The Adirondack Mountain Reserve is a privately owned 7,000-acre land parcel located in the town of Keene Valley that allows for limited public access through a conservation easement agreement with DEC. The pilot reservation system does not apply to other areas in the Adirondack Park. The reservation system, operated by AMR, will facilitate safer public access to trailheads through the AMR gate and for Noonmark and Round mountains and improve visitors' trip planning and preparation by ensuring they have guaranteed parking upon arrival. In recent years, pedestrian traffic, illegal parking, and roadside stopping along Route 73 have created a dangerous environment for hikers and motorists alike. These no-cost reservations will be required May 1 through Oct. 31, 2021. Reservations will be required for parking, daily access, and overnight access to these specific trails. Visitors can make reservations beginning April 15 at hikeamr.org. Walk-in users without a reservation will not be permitted. o There is no cost associated with making a reservation. o Those arriving to Keene Valley via Greyhound or Trailways bus lines may present a valid bus ticket from within 24 hours of arrival to the AMR parking lot attendant in lieu of a reservation. o Those being dropped off or arriving by bicycle must check in at the AMR Hiker Parking Lot and produce a valid reservation. -

1 Hudson Valley Shakespeare Festival 2020 Community Bake-Off
Hudson Valley Shakespeare Festival 2020 Community Bake-Off Playwrighting Event Mahicantuck, The River That Flows Both Ways Sarah Johnson, Ph.D., Public History Consultant Hello, HVSF Bake-Off Playwrights! Here are some history resources to check out as inspiration for your plays. This year’s theme is rich in metaphors, as rivers and deltas have been used in literature, song, and the visual arts to portray life’s movements and confluences. In past years, I have directed participants to their local historical societies, museums, and libraries, to look at collections. This year, I’ve added more digital links because of the Covid-19 quarantine, so you can get inspiration from home, and can think more broadly and symbolically about Mahicantuck. Have a great time writing and thinking about Hudson’s River, as a 19th century map referred to it, and if you have the opportunity, go have a look at the Hudson River and let it inspire you in person. I look forward to the stories you will tell! 1909 Hudson-Fulton stamp The 1909 Fulton-Hudson Celebration was organized to commemorate Hudson’s 1609 “discovery” of the river. The stamp shows his ship the Half Moon, two Native American canoes, and Robert Fulton’s 1807 Clermont steamship on the Hudson. The official program here: https://library.si.edu/digital-library/book/officialprogram00huds also illustrated in the 1909 2 cent stamp and history: https://repository.si.edu/bitstream/handle/10088/8161/npm_1909_stamp.pdf and 2009 commemoration, https://www.themagazineantiques.com/article/the-hudson-fulton- celebration-100-years-later/ Geology & topography of the region: William J. -
