When fadder stops to check the route back down but princess pittie-hound tries to tell him she already knows the way. * * Who else cannot believe it is August already?? Seems like we were just talking about rotten snow and the return of the black flies. It is about this time every year when I realize my Summer list of to-dos has just slipped on by. August is shaping up to be pretty busy for us but I am hoping to still knock a few off the list. Also, I hear Halloween stuff is already out... * * #boopythecheeseslayer #optoutside #ourwild #barkeaters #leavenotrace #pureadk #keepitwild #wildaboutthepark #adkexplorerpix #addnysrangers #adirondacks #beanoutsider #llbeancontest2019 #smoreoutofsummer #findyourbackcountry #howiplayintheadk #getoutmor
Did you know the Adirondacks are one of the best destinations for viewing stars in the East? Swipe right to see an image of the United States at night and you'll notice a nice black spot where the Adirondacks are. If you want to learn more about the night sky, take a journey over to Tupper Lake and check out the Adirondack Sky Center and Observatory. ⠀ PC: zone3photo

Surprisingly I didn’t take a ton of pictures when back in the Adirondacks. We were too busy enjoying them! On this day we had to change plans because the put in parking lot for our originally planned lake was completely full. That didn’t stop us - we went down the road to another lake and ended up with a gorgeous day finding wild blueberries and catching loads of fish 🎣

Let me tell you about my weekend catching up with some great people I have been chatting with forever through this app. Friday I attended the Social Media Rendezvous during the Eastern High Peaks Wilderness Hot Spot hosted by adkmtnclub and leavenotracecenter and was truly honored to be a part of the discussion and humbled by everyone in the room and their passion for protecting the Adirondack Park. I highly recommend getting in on the activities happening through August 14th. In fact the Leave No Trace Awareness Workshop is scheduled for today with the Subaru/Leave No Trace Traveling Trainers. I believe this takes place in one of the cool new yurts. Do it! * * Saturday we climbed a familiar friend (Chris’s choice 😂) before heading over to the sweetest couple’s wedding reception where I finally got to meet up with some of the best humans and dogs in the park. Again, honored to have been a part of their day. Not going to tag everyone but y’all know who you are and you’re the absolute best ❤️ * * #boopythecheeseslayer #optoutside #ourwild #barkeaters #leavenotrace #pureadk #keepitwild #wildaboutthepark #adkexplorerpix #addnysrangers #adirondacks #beanoutsider #llbeancontest2019 #smoreoutofsummer #findyourbackcountry #howiplayintheadk #leavenotraceadk
All smiles tonight, but seriously, who needs to spend money on food when there are plenty of flies you can mistakenly ingest like I did on my trek up? 😂 . . . #adkadventures #onthetrails #whyihike #adkexplorerpix #optoutside #eastcoastcreatives #upperrightusa #goeast #staywild #adklifemag #adkexploration #enjoythejourney #keepontrekking #hikeny #backcountry #outdoorswomen #scenicny #explorationunbound #exploreadk

The first Adirondack chair was created by Thomas Lee around 1903. Lee was searching in vain for comfortable outdoor furniture for his country cottage in Westport, NY. Bunnell (a “friend”) immediately saw the appeal of Lee’s creation. Unbeknownst to Lee, he applied for a patent on the design, which he received in 1905. Bunnell called them Westport Chairs, and sold them very profitably for the next twenty years from coast to coast and abroad. Where have you seen Adirondack chairs outside of NY? Let us know in the comments. #DackFact PC: adkpioneer – #pureadk #explorationunbound #adirondacks #6millionacreplayground #adirondackpark #adirondackmountains #exploreny #exploreadk #wildaboutthepark #visitadks #adk #adks #adksusa #adkexplorerpix #adklife #adirondacklife #localadk #leavenotrace #wildnortheast #upstateny #newyork #adirondackchair #adkchair

Did you know Albert Einstein frequently vacationed in Saranac Lake?

We had our annual family gathering at Fish Creek a few weeks back. Once you find that special spot that holds so many memories over the years, you have to turn it into a tradition. What is your favorite campground or a memory you've made while camping in the Adirondacks?
Have you heard of the northvilleplacidtrail? This 138 mile thru-hike takes you through some of the most remote areas of the Adirondacks. Actually, just 3/4 miles off of the trail is the most remote spot in New York determined and discovered by project_remote.
