    Hudson Valley Shakespeare Festival 2020 Community Bake-Off Playwrighting Event Mahicantuck, The River That Flows Both Ways Sarah Johnson, Ph.D., Public History Consultant Hello, HVSF Bake-Off Playwrights! Here are some history resources to check out as inspiration for your plays. This year’s theme is rich in metaphors, as rivers and deltas have been used in literature, song, and the visual arts to portray life’s movements and confluences. In past years, I have directed participants to their local historical societies, museums, and libraries, to look at collections. This year, I’ve added more digital links because of the Covid-19 quarantine, so you can get inspiration from home, and can think more broadly and symbolically about Mahicantuck. Have a great time writing and thinking about Hudson’s River, as a 19th century map referred to it, and if you have the opportunity, go have a look at the Hudson River and let it inspire you in person. I look forward to the stories you will tell! 1909 Hudson-Fulton stamp The 1909 Fulton-Hudson Celebration was organized to commemorate Hudson’s 1609 “discovery” of the river. The stamp shows his ship the Half Moon, two Native American canoes, and Robert Fulton’s 1807 Clermont steamship on the Hudson.

  • Excerpts from the Book
    Excerpts from Heaven Up-h’isted-ness! Copyright © 2011 by the Adirondack Forty-Sixers, Inc. All rights reserved. On the formation of the Forty-Sixers of Troy: During the early 1930s Bob Marshall’s booklet, “The High Peaks of the Adirondacks,” and Russell Carson’s Peaks and People of the Adirondacks captured the attention of a small group of outdoor enthusiasts from Grace Methodist Church in Troy, in particular the church’s pastor, the Rev. Ernest Ryder (#7), and two parishioners, Grace Hudowalski (#9) and Edward Hudowalski (#6)…. Ed and the Rev. Ryder had not, originally, intended to climb all 46. According to Ed, their goal was 25 peaks, but when they hit 27 “by accident,” they decided to climb 30. After reaching 30 they decided to climb all of them. The two finished arm-in-arm on Dix in the pouring rain on September 13, 1936. They shared a prayer of praise and thanks for their accomplishment. Less than six months after the Rev. Ryder and Ed finished their 46, the duo organized a club, comprised mainly of Ed Hudowalski’s Sunday School class, known as the Forty-Sixers of Troy. It was Ryder who coined the name “Forty-Sixer.” The term first appeared in print in an article in the Troy Record newspaper in 1937 announcing the formation of the hiking club: “Troy has its first mountain climbing club, all officers of which have climbed more than thirty of the major peaks in the Adirondacks. The club recently organized will be known as the Forty-sixers...” On Grace Hudowalski: Much like Bob Marshall, whose love of the wilderness was his all-consuming passion, Grace devoted her talents and energy, in both her professional and personal life, to promoting the exploration of New York State and in particular the Adirondack Mountains.

  • From Source to Sea: Lesson Plan Concepts: Vocabulary: Introduction
    From Source To Sea: Lesson Plan Concepts: 1. Understanding the path the Hudson River takes from the headwaters in the Adirondacks to the New York Harbor 2. Identifying the Hudson River watershed area, main tributaries, important natural and human made features and Estuarine section of the River 3. Compare different stretches of the Hudson River (Northern, Mid, and Southern) 4. Plot physical features from the digital tour online to their locations on the River Mile Map. 5. Identify potential pollution sources, locate them on the Hudson River, and relate them geographically to student’s home or school Vocabulary: Headwaters, watershed, tributaries, estuary, replica, point source pollution, non- point source pollution, amd river miles. Introduction: Many students in New York City and the greater Hudson Valley have seen the river from their car window while driving over the George Washington Bridge, have walked along her shores from a park or possible enjoyed a ferry ride across her waters. Most students do not know where the mighty Hudson River begins or have seen the dramatic mountains, bays, bridges factories and even castles that she flows past. This short pictorial tour shows students the path of the Hudson River from her headwaters at Lake Tear of the Clouds in the Adirondack Mountains down to the New York Harbor where she empties into the Atlantic Ocean. Like many rivers, the Hudson flows through protected parks, wetlands, agricultural farmland, and urbanized and industrialized zones. This diversity of land use presents a variety of challenges and opportunities for environmental protection. Students use the River Mile Map to plot examples of land use in order to understand how far they live and can be affected by the actions of their Hudson River Valley community.

  • Hudson River: an Adventure from the Mountains to the Sea
    Classroom Guide Hudson River: an Adventure from the Mountains to the Sea • The Hudson runs for 315 miles from a tiny pond in the Adirondack Mountains all the way down through the heart of New York State to New York City and the sea. My canoe journey down the entire length of the river is presented in slides and narration. In preparation for my visit, children might: • Study the Adirondack and Catskill Parks, their geography, their history. • Study logging in New York State, running logs from Mount Marcy and the north all the way down to the saw mills in Glens Falls. What happened to the great log drives? • Study the concept of wilderness and the ecological debate between developers (building homes along) and ecologists (preservation of green spaces). • Study the natural process of bogification. Lake Tear is tiny and becoming tinier as a result of the water turning to bog and then to land. • Study Mount Marcy as the highest mountain in the state, above the tree line (discuss the tree line). • Study canoes as vehicles for native Americans and then the first European explorers to travel our land, the voyageurs, for instance, Lewis and Clark, etc. • Study the anatomy of rapids (this will appeal to teachers who run whitewater in their spare time). • Study or take stock of the class's camping and hiking experience, making camp, putting up tents, cooking, drinking the water? not the Hudson water! Why not? • Study the history of Adirondack Guides. • Then move into the power dams along the Hudson and discuss the use of water for electricity.

  • FIRST DESCENTS in the CATSKILLS First Descents Conjure
    Vol. XXXIII, No. 1 JANUARY - MARCH, 2000 FIRST DESCENTS IN THE CATSKILLS First descents conjure up images of high-altitude mountaineering with all its challenges, hazards and hardships. How can there be first descents in the Catskills when all the peaks have been climbed and descended in all conceivable directions? First descents on skis? It's possible that a lot of the trails have been descended in this manner. But, descend from the summit by bushwhacking on skis and there's a good chance of achieving a first descent. A review of skiing history will help us understand how we can manage to ski trailless, steep, wooded terrain. Skiing is thousands of years old, but turning skis was not part of the game until the 1860s when Sondre Norheim of Norway figured out that if he had a twisted root cable going around the heel of his boot, he'd have more control of his destiny. He also invented turning techniques, such as the telemark (Nordic/downhill) and Christiana, to complement his equipment innovations. A whole new world opened to him because of his newly-acquired control. No longer restricted to flat terrain and ski jumps, he could venture into the hills and mountains. Others wanted to be part of this new sport with the result that there followed an explosion in ski, binding and boot design. Eventually, it was discovered that even greater control could be gained if the heel was locked to the ski. Norheim's free-heel telemark turn techniques fell into disuse. What remained of Nordic/downhill skiing was the classic cross-country skiing on flat or easy terrain familiar today, with steep terrain being descended with alpine (heel down) equipment.
