We are part of a region commonly referred to as the “North Country,” an affectionate term Characterized by a rolling countryside, used to describe both the beauty of our natural resources and the friendly character of the people who make the region their home. Unlike the more a more moderate climate, and developed portions of the Park, here you will find a slower pace coupled uncrowded trails and waterways, the with almost limitless opportunities for outdoor recreation. Characterized by northwestern Adirondacks offer a a rolling countryside, a more moderate climate, and uncrowded trails and variety of adventures and challenges waterways, the northwestern Adirondacks offer a variety of adventures and for both the novice and experienced challenges for both the novice and experienced outdoor enthusiast. Sprinkled along scenic roads that wind through both farm country and wilderness outdoor enthusiast. alike are towns and hamlets where you will find a warm welcome, small shops, home-style meals and modest accommodations. The main route through the area, New York State Highway 3, is part of the NYS Olympic Trail Scenic Byway stretching 170 miles from Lake Ontario to Lake Champlain. This guide was designed to highlight natural attractions and outdoor recreation opportunities that exist along the Northwest Foothills PAGE section of the NYS Route 3 corridor between Pitcairn and Piercefield. We 1 invite you to use this handy guide to enhance your visit to the northwestern Adirondacks. Enjoy your stay!

Taken together, the mountains, lakes, ponds, streams, trails and roads found here offer year-round recreational opportunities for people of all ages. Cranberry Lake, for example, the third largest lake in the Park, offers unmatched opportunities for swimming, fishing, boating, and water skiing. Or check out the south branch of the Grass River, where 11 of the 40 most scenic Adirondack waterfalls can be viewed and photographed. If hiking, camping, or cross country skiing is your fancy, head into the Five Ponds Wilderness Area; it won’t be long before you fall in love with the gentle wildness that characterizes this large but seldom used wilderness area. Or perhaps you would like to canoe or kayak on three of the Park’s most wild and spectacular rivers: the Oswegatchie, the Grass, or the mighty Raquette. For those not fearful of heights, climb two of the last- remaining fire towers in the Adirondacks to take in a spirit-restoring vista or, perhaps, to catch a better view of our migrating and resident bird populations. Still looking for more? For the sporting man or woman, there is fine hunting to be had for both large and small game. And the numerous lakes, ponds and rivers in the region offer year-round fishing opportunities. Or how about a relaxing game of golf on a classic 9-hole course, or an invigorat- ing bike ride through an old-growth forest? It’s all here, and you won’t have to wait in line for any of it.

The Adirondack Watershed Institute Stewardship Program (AWISP) is part of coordinated efforts at the local, regional and statewide levels to detect and arrest the spread of AIS. The Adirondack Watershed Institute (AWI) works year-round with partner organizations, communities and government agencies to understand and manage a range of environmental quality issues through research and education. 2014 marked the fifteenth field season for the AWISP. 2014 highlights: Clean, Drain, Dry! AWISP stewards provided coverage at 31 launches on 26 lakes and ponds this season sharing the message of “Clean, Drain, and Dry!” New Education Program! The AWISP launched an off-site environmental education program called the Water Shield Workshop. The program integrates land-based exercises with on-water activities for participants of all ages. Water Shield Workshops were held at Lake Pleasant, Schroon Lake, and Lower Saranac Lake in 2014. Finding Bythotrephes! Survey efforts by AWISP staff confirmed the presence of spiny waterflea (Bythotrephes longimanus) in Lake Pleasant and Piseco Lake for the first time. See it! Touch it! Learn it! The AWISP purchased an Enviroscape watershed model for education and outreach activities. Round-up of accomplishments, by the numbers: AWISP stewards confirmed and removed 834 AIS from inspected watercraft across the Adirondack region.

  • Impacts of Lime Treatment on Trout Ponds in the Five Ponds Wilderness of the Adirondack Park”
    “Impacts of Lime Treatment on Trout Ponds in the Five Ponds Wilderness of the Adirondack Park” by David Andrews Candidate for Bachelor of Science Environmental Forest Biology: Aquatics and Fisheries Science With Honors May 2012 APPROVED Thesis Project Advisor: Dr. Kimberly Schulz (typed name of honors advisor) Second Reader: Dr. Neil Ringler (typed name of second reader) Honors Director: ______________________________ William M. Shields, Ph.D. Date: ______________________________ Abstract: Addition of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) to lakes in the form of agricultural limestone is a management technique used in the Adirondack Park in New York State to mitigate the effects of acidic precipitation on aquatic ecosystems. We used a combination of in situ and laboratory experiments as well as field sampling of two neighboring ponds in the Five Ponds Wilderness with different liming histories to test whether the application of limestone can have significant effects on survivorship and community composition of aquatic organisms. Within in situ mesocosms or laboratory microcosms survivorship was decreased for crustacean zooplankton, amphipods and odonata nymphs at concentrations of one ton per surface acre of lime and higher; the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) applies lime at one ton per surface acre. Tamarack Pond has been managed by lime addition and brook trout stocking and the aquatic insect community is significantly different than that of Slender Pond, which has never been limed or stocked, even though the two ponds share a water source. This difference may be attributable to predation impacts of fish on aquatic insects, making the link between liming and insect faunal compositions difficult to determine.
