Forever Wild in the Adirondack Mountains: Library Research for the Ecology, Hydrology and Geology in the Adirondack Park
By using photographs from hiking excursions and imagery from publications in the Princeton University Library’s geosciences collection, this tour of the Adirondacks will include information on local wildlife, fish, ferns, moss, trees, lakes, rivers, rock formations, mountains, minerals, natural hazards, local Mohawk (Iroquois) information and legends, and environmental regulations specific to the areas within the blue line of the Adirondack Park. The session will include how the Adirondack Mountains became "Forever Wild," and the preservation efforts of Harold A. Jerry Jr. ’41 to establish the Adirondack Park Agency.
