Diamond Sportsmen Club's APA Permit

Posted on March 2, 2010 by Randy

Man, the APA can be some real jerks sometimes… Looks like the formation of the Diamond Sportsmen Club got off to a rocky start. Found an article detailing some of the things they had to agree to which went well above and beyond standard APA guidelines. One of the more interesting bits I found is … Continue reading »

Posted on February 23, 2010 by Randy

Ran into a strange site while snowmobiling last weekend. The Lone Grave of Benj Miller. At least that’s what I’m calling it… It’s a single grave surrounded by a chain link fence on the top of a small hill along route 56. The snowmobile trail goes right by it (2 ft away). There’s a small … Continue reading »

The High Peaks Resort

Posted on April 30, 2009 by Randy

I’ve been meaning to climb some of the Adirondack High Peaks for a few years. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t have any grand illusions of becoming a 46er (Although, as a side note, that would be awesome). I simply enjoy climbing the occasional mountain. Climbing some of the highest peaks in New York State … Continue reading »
