    “Let’s talk it over at Mohonk Mohonk.” DECEMBER Consultations 2018 The beauty of the natural surroundings at Mohonk, along with its Quaker traditions of peaceful inclusiveness, provide a unique atmosphere for exchanging ideas and creating solutions. 2018 was a year of community building. Mohonk Consultations has helped communities face challenges and find solutions since our beginning in 1980. Our non-profit organization engages and convenes a diverse group of Hudson Valley residents to collaborate on regional issues with global significance. Our past conferences, forums, award ceremonies, and publications have focused on agriculture and food security, water resources, land conservation, social justice, peace building, and climate change. Mohonk Consultations’ mission has remained the same—to foster a clearer awareness of the interrelationship of all life on earth and help develop practical solutions. Throughout 2018, Mohonk Consultations kept its attention on building community, conservation, landscape connectivity, and sustainable agriculture in the Hudson Valley. We focused on pressing issues facing our local area while also incorporating national and global perspectives. Embraced by the inspiring venue of Mohonk Mountain House, our attendees shared their viewpoints, expertise, and experiences. As we look back, it’s worth recapping our final conference of 2017 that served as the foundation for our first 2018 event. On Monday, November 6, 2017 a sold-out conference, Nature Across Boundaries: Keeping Lands and Waters Connected was held in the Mohonk Mountain House Conference Center. Speakers and attendees came from throughout our region. Laura Heady, Mohonk Consultations board member and Conservation and Land Use Program Coordinator at the NYSDEC Hudson River Estuary Program kicked off the conference, putting “connectivity” into a Hudson Valley context.

  • Linen, Section 2, G to Indians
    Arizona, Linen Radio Cards Post Card Collection Section 2—G to Indians-Apache By Al Ring LINEN ERA (1930-1945 (1960?) New American printing processes allowed printing on postcards with a high rag content. This was a marked improvement over the “White Border” postcard. The rag content also gave these postcards a textured “feel”. They were also cheaper to produce and allowed the use of bright dyes for image coloring. They proved to be extremely popular with roadside establishments seeking cheap advertising. Linen postcards document every step along the way of the building of America’s highway infra-structure. Most notable among the early linen publishers was the firm of Curt Teich. The majority of linen postcard production ended around 1939 with the advent of the color “chrome” postcard. However, a few linen firms (mainly southern) published until well into the late 50s. Real photo publishers of black & white images continued to have success. Faster reproducing equipment and lowering costs led to an explosion of real photo mass produced postcards. Once again a war interfered with the postcard industry (WWII). During the war, shortages and a need for military personnel forced many postcard companies to reprint older views WHEN printing material was available. Photos at 43%.

  • Trails As Facilitators for Collaboration Among Stakeholders
    sustainability Article Negotiating Improved Multifunctional Landscape Use: Trails as Facilitators for Collaboration Among Stakeholders Kristin Godtman Kling 1,* , Annika Dahlberg 2 and Sandra Wall-Reinius 1 1 Department of Economics, Geography, Law and Tourism, Mid-Sweden University, Kunskapens väg 1, S-831 25 Östersund, Sweden 2 Department of Physical Geography, Stockholm University, S-106 91 Stockholm, Sweden * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +4610-142-7851 Received: 15 May 2019; Accepted: 24 June 2019; Published: 26 June 2019 Abstract: Trails are significant features in landscapes, and many ancient pathways have developed into routes of great importance for recreation and tourism in contemporary societies. Nevertheless, international research on recreational trails has hitherto mainly focused on managerial and environmental aspects of trails and less on trails from a social science perspective, such as conflict management. This study explores the role of recreational trails as a potential tool for managing conflicts in a multifunctional landscape. The findings originate from a case study of the southern Jämtland mountain region in Sweden, an area where land-use conflicts exist and where tourism is a major concern. The study examines the recreational trail as an applied example where actors in the mountain landscape “negotiate” and collaborate. through the recreational trail, dialogue and discussions are made possible among stakeholders. Findings show that trails can function as facilitators for communication and can thus enhance the possibilities of building trust and promoting collaboration between actors. This research contributes to the existing literature on handling multiple land-use interests and adds to previous knowledge by taking on a rather new approach, where the recreational trail becomes a facilitator for communication.
