An Earth Day remembrance: lessons in Adirondack activism | News, Sports, Jobs

Adirondack Wild: Friends of the Forest Preserve Paul Schaefer is seen at his Adirondack camp in fall 1995. (Provided photo â Dave Gibson) Adirondack wilderness champion, conservationist, author, filmmaker and hunter/fisher Paul Schaefer (1908-1996) was a pied piper for young people in search of a cause, just as John Apperson and Bob Marshall had been for him when Schaefer was in his early 20s. During the 1980s and ’90s, Paul was in his eighth decade of life, and scouts, teens and Earth activists of all ages found a way to Paul’s doorstep in search of wisdom and to gain a sense of Adirondack history and current direction.

HISTORY IS COOL: 90 years ago | News, Sports, Jobs

– With the gradual clearing of ice, several of the Adirondack rivers are approaching the spring freshet stage and are being filled with logs to be driven downstream and converted into pulp. Schroon River is being filled with logs, and with a lot of snow still in the woods in the Raquette River section, more than 40 men await the signal to start the drive. In all, 40,000 cords will soon be floated down the St. Regis River from Meacham Lake in one of the largest runs. Old lumbering methods were filled with danger, and the best drivers, many of them French Canadians, were of the most daring heroic type, callous to hardship. On the great lumber highway from the Saranac Lakes to Plattsburgh, the drivers performed skillful feats and tricks not essential to their work, which in itself meant constant exposure to wind and weather and often to ice-cold water.
