Explore Hudson Valley APRIL - JUNE 2017 • ULSTER PUBLISHING • WWW.HUDSONVALLEYONE.COM Where to Guide A river has two sides A season full of destinations, events, traditions, histories and musings 2 • April - June, 2017 Explore Hudson Valley Our river has two sides, and it’s very wide By Paul Smart tanding by the banks of the Hudson near the site of an old ice house (which could be most Sanywhere on either shoreline), my kid’s jumping rock to rock with the dog. A duck of some sort skirts the still water headed north (must be that mo- ment between the incoming and outgo- ing tides). I can see houses, a small city in the distance. There’s a hint of distant hills, and even more distant mountains. A train scurries north not a half hour since the last one did the same. Things must have gotten blocked up down in the city, I think. Behind me is a small hillside, fields to the north and forest to the south. I’m facing east, of course, towards Columbia and Dutchess counties, and Connecticut and Massachusetts, along with the rest of New England. Do I feel the Catskill Mountains, Pennsylvania and Ohio and the rest of the Midwest and West behind me? Not really, only if I start to put my mind to it. A river has two sides. This idea came up at a recent meeting. The concept envel- oped much of our region’s history, as well as that of our modern politics. Son Milo tries skipping rocks.

2018 Spring Snow Trail
Celebrating and Preserving the History and Heritage of Maine Skiing • Spring 2018 SKI MUSEUM OF MAINE Jean Luce, First Lady of Maine Skiing By Leigh Breidenbach “...For the next few years [the] main proponent [of freestyle] was to be someone completely unaware of the large part she was to play”- Morten Lund Let’s be clear right from the start, Jean Luce will most likely disagree with the title of this piece; however if you read Dave Irons brief but spectacular 2004 Hall of Fame bio on Jean’s contributions to skiing and competitive skiing in particular, the title of “First Lady of Maine Skiing” is spot on. Jean has officiated at every level of ski racing: World Cup, World Championship, and Olympic. In 1969, she wrote the Eastern Freestyle Rule Book, which would became the first official USSA Freestyle Rule Book. Jean’s willingness to say yes to a challenge is well know in the racing world and at Sugarloaf in particular. In the fall of 1968, Jean and her husband Norton, members of the Sugarloaf Ski Club received a phone call from Roger Peabody, executive director of the United States Eastern Amateur Ski Association, asking if the Ski Club Jean Luce with Harry Baxter, Sugarloaf Ski School Director and Sugarloaf Ski resort would be interested in in a publicity photo for the 1971 Tall Timber Classic World Cup Race hosting a World Cup race. At the time the only U.S. area east of the Rockies that had been a Norton decided to take a trip and get a good look World Cup host was Cannon Mountain in New at the challenges facing the Sugarloaf Ski Club. -

Johnsen Company of Portland. Despite these early glimmers of skiing awareness, when the sport began its ascendancy to popularity in the 1930s, the state’s likeliest venues were more distant, and public land ownership less widespread, than was the case in the neighboring states of New Hampshire and Vermont, and ski area development in those states was consequently greater. -

Orman “Sonny” Goodwin, a lifelong skier, was a partner in the construction company that transformed Camden’s little rope tow hill into a significant community ski area that boasted a long T-bar, a chairlift, snowmaking and a distinctive base lodge. Details of his various Snow Bowl construction projects can be found in his soon-to-be-published memoir, Ta l e s From the Life of Sonny. On February 10 the Snow Bowl, the community of Camden and the Ski Museum of Maine will honor Sonny and his many contributions. Sonny has been skiing for eight decades, beginning as a small boy growing up in Camden. His love affair Nobody has been more closely identified with the Camden Snow Bowl with our sport began on a little incline than Orman “Sonny” Goodwin, who erected its lifts and constructed its base lodge in the 1960s and 1970s.

High Peaks Region Recreation Plan
High Peaks Region Recreation Plan An overview and analysis of the recreation, possibilities, and issues facing the High Peaks Region of Maine Chris Colin, Jacob Deslauriers, Dr. Chris Beach Fall 2008 Maine Appalachian Trail Land Trust – High Peaks Initiative: The Maine Appalachian Trail Land Trust (MATLT) was formed in June 2002 by a group of Mainers dedicated to the preservation of the natural qualities of the lands surrounding the Appalachian Trail in Maine. Following its campaign to acquire Mount Abraham and a portion of Saddleback Mountain, MATLT is embarking on a new initiative to research and document the ecological qualities of the entire Western Maine High Peaks Region. The MATLT website describes the region as follows: “The Western Maine High Peaks Region is the 203,400 acres roughly bounded by the communities of Rangeley, Phillips, Kingfield and Stratton. In this region, there are about 21,000 acres above 2700 feet. It is one of only three areas in Maine where the mountains rise above 4000 feet. The other two are the Mahoosuc Range and Baxter Park. Eight (8) of the fourteen (14) highest mountains in Maine are in this region (Sugarloaf, Crocker, South Crocker, Saddleback, Abraham, The Horn, Spaulding and Redington Peak.) These are all above 4000 feet. If one adds the Bigelow Range, across Route 27/16 from Sugarloaf, the region hosts ten (10) of the highest mountains (Avery Peak and West Peak added)). This area is comparable in size to Baxter Park but has 40% more area above 2700 feet.” Table of Contents I.
