"The Adirondacks, rich in history and lore, is one of the oldest mountain ranges in the world. Although only a day's drive away for over 50 million people, these mountains are particularly noted for their countless unspoiled lakes and trout streams. Spectacular gorges and waterfalls, untold miles of hiking trails and vast, deep forests. Forty-four of the montain peaks are above 4,000 feet, including Mt. Marcy and 5,344 feet, where Tear-of-the-Clounds Lake is found, the northern-mist source of the Hudson River. Located in upstate New York, the Adirondack Park is composed of private and public land totaling almost 6 million acres - "A living museum of the old wilderness" - larger than the state of Massachusetts. Mandated by the state constitution, the New York State Forest Preserve includes 2.3 million acres within the park's boundaries which must remain "forever wild." The Adirondack winderness enjoys cool and pleasant summers, brilliant autumns, magical winters and in the spring a rich renewal of these immense "North Woods." - from the rear 2nd to last endpage. 0.
