The Adirondack Almanack
The Adirondack Almanack is a public forum dedicated to promoting and discussing current events, history, arts, nature and outdoor recreation and other topics of interest to the Adirondacks and its communities
We publish commentary and opinion pieces from voluntary contributors, as well as news updates and event notices from area organizations. Contributors include veteran local writers, historians, naturalists, and outdoor enthusiasts from around the Adirondack region. The information, views and opinions expressed by these various authors are not necessarily those of the Adirondack Almanack or its publisher, the Adirondack Explorer.
General inquiries about the Adirondack Almanack should be directed to editor Melissa Hart.

I joined my hometown paper, The Watertown Daily Times, a week after high school graduation. Weeks later, I was covering the dedication of the Road & Rail Transportation Building at the Adirondack Museum. After Harold K. Hochschild gave Gov. Nelson Rockefeller a tour of the museum, I met them. I didn’t see a program, so I learned only later Hochschild’s decadeslong involvement in the Adirondacks, since 1905.
