    Be prepared this winter

    As we begin to once again safely explore the wonders of the Adirondacks and its wide-open spaces, it is important to remember to show love and care for this amazing natural wonderland. Going on an all day cross-country ski adventure? Remember to pack the right gear, including extra layers. Going somewhere new? Prepare for winter's worst by doing plenty of research before you go, especially about the map and weather. This is the perfect time to learn about winter preparedness and take the Love Your ADK pledge. You can help preserve our wild spaces for generations. 

    About our website

    The reason you may see media of people not wearing masks on our website is because all footage is from prior years. More than ever we all need to be vigilant about maintaining social distance of 6 feet or more and wearing masks when we cannot social distance.

    Kindness is the Adirondack Way

    None of this can be done alone. No matter where we live, work, or play, we're all in this together. Let's remember to be kind to each other and send virtual hugs. We'll be better for it in the end.

    Thank you for staying safe, and staying inspired!
