The Adirondack region is touted as a great “wilderness,” but it is also home to over 130,000 people.  Even much of the uninhabited, state-owned land has been shaped by human activity through logging, mining, tourism, reconstruction, and reforestation.  “Living with the Land” will explore the use and meaning of wilderness and wild lands from the perspectives of the modern sustainable logging industry, indigenous wisdom, and conservationism.

 

Tim Burpoe, Property Manager at Molpus Woodlands Group, LLC will present about woodlands management, sustainable logging, and other ways to manage Adirondack lands. He will place the Adirondacks and Adirondack issues in the perspective of national and international issues
