A car packed to the gills with kids and gear creeps along in the afternoon rush, caught up in the traffic of the traditional summer vacation exodus. The line of cars moves along the highway in a slow crawl, abandoning the bustle of daily life for the peace and relaxation they’ll find in the Green Mountains of Vermont. Despite the verdant oasis — and all the fun — that awaits, making the transition from hectic and harried to mellow and magical can be challenging for parents and kids alike. Today’s families tend to operate at Mach-3, running between work and school, social engagements and extra-curriculars. But shifting into vacation mode without extra stress is possible and Smugglers’ offers plenty of activities to help families start their hard-earned vacations off on the right foot. by Gina DeCaprio Vercesi 14 • explore explore • 15 NATURE NURTURES Time spent exploring the abundant nature around the resort offers an excellent segue from daily life to vacation mode. Whether that means heading out for a guided walk to learn about native flora and fauna, paddling a scenic stretch of the Lamoille River while searching for busy beavers, or trekking a trail alongside a fleet of furry llamas, playing outside is a great way for everyone in the family to slow down and reconnect.

    The Challenge at Goat Hill Park – Presented by Innova Disc Golf 2021 Caddie Book MPO & FPO Divisions May 7-9, 2021 Oceanside, CA Welcome, everyone, to The Challenge at Goat Hill Park – Driven by Innova. The 2021 edition of The Challenge has been just that – a challenge – to organize and prepare. I’m so happy that we are able to present a disc golf competition for you, whether you are playing, volunteering, sponsoring, spectating or viewing. The Challenge continues to grow, in size, scope and stature from year to year. And that growth could not happen without your support and participation. Thank You! Disc golf has seen dramatic growth in the past year and that growth brings with it great excitement, but also great responsibility. Holding a large disc golf tournament in a COVID- aware world means that this event is being run a bit different than pre-COVID. We have instituted some social distancing rules for players and volunteers to follow – we appreciate your help with that. I want to express my heartfelt appreciation to my colleagues at Innova Disc Golf for their support – The Challenge would not happen without them. Also, many, many thanks to Eli Ivey, John Ashworth and the staff at Goat Hill Park for their continued support of disc golf at the Goat! And I send much love to my son and daughter, AJ and Katie, for all the help they provide and for hearing out all of the crazy ideas I toss at them, without judging them too harshly. It means the world to me.

    Alpine Soils on Mount Mansfi eld, Vermont, USA: Pedology, History, and Intraregional Comparison Jeffrey S. Munroe* The highest summits in the northeastern United States rise above the tree line and support Geology Dep. unique islands of alpine tundra. Little is known about the properties and history of these soils Middlebury College and it is unclear how soils compare between the separate, isolated alpine areas. As a step toward Middlebury, VT 05753 addressing this oversight, the physical and chemical properties of alpine soils were investigated on Mt. Mansfi eld, the highest mountain in Vermont. Soil thickness was determined through probing, while profi le development and horizon properties were investigated in 31 excava- tions. Soil covers ∼85% of the study area, with profi les averaging 18 cm thick (maximum of 58 cm). Most profi les demonstrate a variation on the sequence Oi, Oa and/or A, Bw or Bs (rare), AC, and Cr horizons. The Oa horizons contain signifi cantly more C, Ca, K, and Mg than A horizons, and have higher cation exchange capacity and base saturation, and lower pH values. Almost one-third of the profi les were classifi ed as Histosols, while nearly twice as many were classifi ed as Entisols. Only two profi les contained cambic horizons and were classifi ed as Inceptisols. Histosols contained signifi cantly more K and organic matter than Entisols. A buried Sphagnum layer, radiocarbon dated to approximately 1000 yr ago, suggests a wetter climate at that time. Mount Mansfi eld soils are generally thinner than those described from nearby alpine environments and contain more organic matter with higher C/N ratios.

  • The Long Trail: Abbreviated
    The Long Trail: Abbreviated By: Aaron Shore 1950 LS10779_000 Purpose Hiking the Long Trail has been a dream of mine since I came to UVM four years ago. It is America’s oldest long-distance hiking trail, measuring 270 miles from Canada to Massachusetts. I created this scrapbook so others could share my experience, and learn the history of the trail. Enjoy. LS11220_000 Camel’s Hump, 1880 LS09840_000 Sunrise from Mansfield, 1875 I began my trip in southern Vermont with James Taylor and this image in mind. I wanted to be a part of the beauty that the Vermont landscape encompassed and was known for. James Taylor, a professor at the Vermont Academy, first conceived the trail in 1910. His goal was to “make the Vermont Mountains play a larger part in the life of the people.” LS12596_000 Camels Hump, 2004 Killington Peak, 1975 LS03624_000 A view from the top of Killington Peak. The reason James Taylor first conceived the Long Trail was because he couldn’t take his students into the wilderness without bushwhacking. He wanted to be able to travel from Killington Peak to Pico Peak, a short walk on a trail. During the first 10 days of my trip, I went from excited to dismal. I rarely saw anyone else on the trail and there were far more trees than mountain top views. I finally came across this nice women who told me about the Green Mountain Club (GMC). LS05755_000 Little Rock Pond, 1977 In 1911, a group of 23 people, including Mr. Taylor, got together in Burlington, VT and formed the GMC.

Educational Disc Golf Experience: A Prospectus I. Statement of Need “Disc golf can be played from school age to old age, making it one of the greatest lifetime fitness sports available. Specially- abled and disabled participate, giving them the opportunity to take part in a mainstream activity. Because disc golf is so easy to learn, no one is excluded. Players merely match their pace to their capabilities, and proceed from there.”1 Until now, there has been no school-based curriculum or other effective training program to teach the basic skills of disc golf. By combining the fundamentals of the sport with educational objectives in the areas of health and fitness, math, science, civics, and the environment, the Educational Disc Golf Experience (EDGE) provides a way to introduce more young players to the sport, and indirectly, bring the adults in their lives to the game, as well.
