  • January 10Th
    JAN. 2015 — MARCH 2015 No 1501 Go Out And Try Winter Hiking! If you’ve always wanted to try winter hiking, or are just looking for a different kind of winter outdoor experience, we have a lot of outings to offer you! Jack Whitney is leading several snowshoe hikes, welcoming beginners with great advice on clothing and footwear for a comfortable experience. For our younger members, or those young at heart or romantically inclined, Jen Shepherd is leading some Young Members Group hikes including a special Val- entine’s Day Singles Mingle (couples welcome, too) that will be fun! And if you like a shorter, local trip, check out the offerings from Mo Coutant, Sarah King, Bill Schwarz, Rich Crammond and Reg Prouty. So, look at our outings calendar on page 7. Remember, the chapter rents snowshoes. Chapter rents snowshoes Program Snowshoes are at ADK Member Services in Lake George. Call 668- Adventures in and around the 4447 for reservations and hours. We have two pairs of men’s MSR Adirondacks with Peter Denali snowshoes, two pairs of women’s Tubbs snowshoes and two Fedorick pairs of children’s Tubbs snowshoes. When: 7pm Jan. 21 What: Presentation Chapter Members: $10/weekday; $15/weekend Non-Members: $13/weekday; $18/weekend Where: Crandall Library Adventures in and around the Adirondacks Most would agree that the High Peaks of the Adiron- dacks enjoy the spotlight when it comes to discussions among outdoor enthusiasts from our area. Let’s try some- thing different by letting chapter member Peter Fedorick take us on a pictorial journey to some other Adirondack gems in his presentation “Adventures in and around the Adirondacks.” Fedorick will show us often-overlooked images of paddling, hiking and biking available in our backyard, such as paddling Lens Lake, visiting the Tupe- los of Lincoln Mountain State Forest, and biking the back roads of Shushan.

  • Membership Update
    The Newsletter of the Hurricane Mountain Chapter of ADK Good Tidings July – October 2016 "Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their freshness into you and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves." John Muir (1838-1914) hair Words C A message from Chapter Chair, Mary Jean Bland There are many people that contribute to the Chapter, the preservation of the Adirondacks we all love and the community around them, yet somehow stay behind the scene and often go unnoticed. I would like to take some time here to recognize a few of those special people. People I owe a special thank you to for their help, support and encouragement. Monique Weston for one has a heart bigger than the Adirondacks itself. She begs and twists arms to ensure we have warm, welcoming homes and hosts for our potlucks. She is always aware and involved in ensuring our environment is watched over and protected. She is there to protect individual’s rights and support social causes. And she is always willing to reach out and help anyone in need. She is truly a very special woman and someone who makes the world a better place. Along with Monique, I would like to recognize Nancy and Bob Kolhbecker. Here is a couple that has supported and worked for the Chapter for years. They are always willing to volunteer no matter what the need. They also do more than their share of leading outings and have certainly provided some unique opportunities.
