Recreation  more

Nearly every week, year round, the chapter schedules outings, usually on Saturdays. Outings include trips geared towards families or beginners, as well as rugged adventures in the High Peaks. Membership is not required and there is no charge.

Check our Events & Outings page for upcoming trips. We also publish a complete list of trips for the next three months in our quarterly newsletter, the "North Wind".

Education  more

The Outdoors-Indoors series and our semi-annual potlucks offer evening presentations on a variety of topics, such as slide shows of overseas trips, regional geology, and Adirondack book collecting. Look for these programs on the Events & Outings page, usually in the cooler months.

The Lauretian chapter provides several youth programs. These include Teen Trailwork crews for high school students, and week-long stays at the DEC's Camp Colby for students aged 12-14.

Conservation  more

Laurentians support ADK's mission to protect the Forest Preserve and other lands and waters in a wide variety of ways. Ways to get involved range from helping maintain our local Red Sandstone and Stone Valley trails, to leading outings, to participating in state and local hearings.
