  • Rartioter Vol
    rartioter Vol. XII, No. 1 WINTER 1 9 7 9 BLACK DOME IN 1924 The Catskill Mountains have been known to white men for three hundred years and their valleys have been settled more than a cen- tury. It would seem as if all their summits ought by this time to be easily accessible by well known trails. Yet there are a dozen or more of the higher ones, above 3500 feet, which have no trails to their summits and which are climbed only by the exploring hiker, or perhaps a bear hunter in winter. I recently found another trackless peak, Black Dome, just under 4000 feet--3990 according to the Durham sheet of the United States Geological Survey--on a week-end climb in the northern Catskills. There is no trail over it, and the only paths that reach its flanks are faded out logging roads in the valleys north and south, attain- ing heights 1500 feet below its highest point. Black Dome is the central and highest of the three peaks that make up the Blackhead Mountains, running east and west, Black Head being the easternmost, then Black Dome and the last Thomas Cole. The other two are about fifty feet lower than the Dome. South of them is the valley of the East Kill, north that of Batavia Kill. North of Black Head runs a long ridge to Acra Point, then turning west to Windham High Peak. South this ridge runs through North Mountain and Stoppel Mountain to Kaaterskill Clove. Black Head is accessible by a good trail.

  • New York Freshwater Fishing Regulations Guide: 2015-16
    NEW YORK Freshwater FISHING2015–16 OFFICIAL REGULATIONS GUIDE VOLUME 7, ISSUE NO. 1, APRIL 2015 Fishing for Muskie www.dec.ny.gov Most regulations are in effect April 1, 2015 through March 31, 2016 MESSAGE FROM THE GOVERNOR New York: A State of Angling Opportunity When it comes to freshwater fishing, no state in the nation can compare to New York. Our Great Lakes consistently deliver outstanding fishing for salmon and steelhead and it doesn’t stop there. In fact, New York is home to four of the Bassmaster’s top 50 bass lakes, drawing anglers from around the globe to come and experience great smallmouth and largemouth bass fishing. The crystal clear lakes and streams of the Adirondack and Catskill parks make New York home to the very best fly fishing east of the Rockies. Add abundant walleye, panfish, trout and trophy muskellunge and northern pike to the mix, and New York is clearly a state of angling opportunity. Fishing is a wonderful way to reconnect with the outdoors. Here in New York, we are working hard to make the sport more accessible and affordable to all. Over the past five years, we have invested more than $6 million, renovating existing boat launches and developing new ones across the state. This is in addition to the 50 new projects begun in 2014 that will make it easier for all outdoors enthusiasts to access the woods and waters of New York. Our 12 DEC fish hatcheries produce 900,000 pounds of fish each year to increase fish populations and expand and improve angling opportunities.

  • LWLA Spring 2016 Newsletter
    Spring Newsletter – April 2016 A Message from the President – Terry Allison Like most of you, I was totally amazed by the mild winter weather we had this year. I can only wonder what the weather will be like as we begin the 2016 lake season! The new lake season brings for you and your LWLA continued vigilance overseeing the good health of our beautiful lakes. It is a united effort. That’s why it’s so important that you support us with your membership. If you haven’t paid your 2016 dues, please do. We cannot accomplish anything without you and your financial support. We continue to face several issues that are never ending. The fight to keep Eurasian Milfoil under control has become common place on our “to-do” list. Along with that, we now face a financial deficit because of the rising cost of chemical treatment. Thanks to the Lakes District Commission, we’ve done well for many years. But now, we face shortfalls unless we change our taxation formula. The Lamoka-Waneta Lakes' Protection District tax was started in 2003. There has never been an increase. To make ends meet, we will be proposing an increase. The increase will be 50% over the current rates so that 80' of frontage or less pays $135/year (was $90), greater than 80' of frontage pays $180/year (was $120), access to the lake pays $90/year (was $60), and non-developable properties such as wetlands pay $27 (was $18). It’s our hope that this will keep pace with our expenses.

LYONS Skidmore College Sponsor: Kyle Nichols INTRODUCTION Site Description Lakes often respond to variations in temperature Keuka Lake is the third largest of the 11 Finger and precipitation by changing their hydrologic Lakes by surface area (47 km2) and fifth by balance. Previous studies suggest the timing of volume (1.4 km3) (Mullins et al., 1996) (Fig1 lake highstands and lowstands in the Midwest Not available). The lake has two unique does not correlate with those in the eastern characteristics compared to the other Finger United States. The mid-Holocene Hypsithermal Lakes. It has a Y-shape and it drains eastward (~9 - ~5 ka) is recorded as a period of warm, dry into another Finger Lake, Seneca Lake. Its climate in western and central North America present morphology results from the deepening (COHMAP 1988; Dean et al. 1996), but as a of pre-existing stream valleys during the warm, wet interval in the eastern Great Lakes Wisconsin glaciation, which explains why the region (Dwyer at al. 1996; Silliman et al. 1996). Keuka Lake is narrow (3.3 km max. width) and In the White Mountains, NH, pollen records long (32 km). The narrow, deep basin (up to indicate a moister climate than present between 57 m) allows for the collection of undisturbed 10,000 and 8,000 yr BP and a warmer period sediment that preserve suitable records of (2°C warmer than present) occurred at ~9,000 environmental changes since the retreat of the yr BP (Shuman et al., 2002; Davis et al., 1980).
