Autumn and Adirondack Safaris

I meant to post this entry yesterday as I promised, but I've been working non-stop to organize Adirondack Safaris' fall programs. September is the most beautiful month in our region, and I hope to be sharing the wilderness with many people.

The following are some highlights, which will be appearing soon on the website:

1. A series of 3 Tuesday morning nature hikes for women: September 12, 19, and 26, touring different sections of the Siamese Ponds Wilderness.

2. A series of 3 Wednesday morning mountain climbs in the southern Adirondacks for women: September 13, 20, and 27. A terrific way to get in shape for skiing this winter!

3. A Leaf Arts Workshop for children ages 8-13 at the Adirondack Lakes Center for the Arts in Blue Mountain Lake on Monday late afternoons 3:30-5:00 pm.: September 18, 25, and October 2. Lots of leaf collecting and leaf pressing leading to painting in both watercolors and pastels.

The schedule leaves plenty of time for walking, hiking, and mountain climbing adventures with clients.

For late September and the first week of October, the peak foliage season, I have a knock-your-socks-off list of hikes for folks hoping to make the most of the vibrant colors of autumn.
