This holiday season, we’re grateful for the Adirondacks and all they have to offer. From their natural beauty to their rich history, this region never fails to impress. Here’s why the Adirondacks continue to stand out as one of the most unique places to live and visit:

🌲 Adirondack Park is the largest park in the mainland U.S., spanning over 6 million acres—about the size of Vermont.

🌊 With 3,000+ lakes and ponds and 30,000 miles of streams, it offers endless opportunities for outdoor activities and exploration.

🏞️ 85% of the park is designated wilderness, making it one of the largest remaining wild areas in the Eastern U.S.

🚶‍♂️ The Adirondacks feature the largest trail system in the U.S., with 2,000 miles of hiking trails across 2,000 mountains, including 100 peaks over 3,000 feet.

🌍 Each year, 7-10 million visitors come to experience this stunning landscape, while 137,000 residents live year-round within the park.

A young boy on my tour last year asked a simple question, “were there Indians here?” With nowhere else to go, I repeated the worn-out line that Native American people used the Adirondacks as hunting grounds. It was an unsatisfying response, for both of us. As Sagamore’s historian, I knew as much as that kid about 98% of the area’s human timeline.

I quickly found a small but growing body of research on Native American history in central and northern New York State. I also learned that these topics, this knowledge, is not new. From my perspective, I could dig into books and articles about the academic pursuit of knowledge. But, Native Americans have been telling their own stories from the beginning. To properly answer that boy’s question, Sagamore needs to welcome the perspectives of the people about whom we’re speaking.

The Eurocentric university-based perspective and the Native American oral history perspective are often presented in concert, each welcoming the other. I reached out to John Fadden at the Six Nations Iroquois Cultural Center in Onchiota, New York. John’s father Ray Fadden and his family, who lived in the Mohawk community of Akwesasne, opened the center in 1954 so that the general public “may acquire the knowledge needed to better understand the history, culture, contemporary realities, and the potential future of Native Nations.” The center remains northern New York’s leading source for discovering a variety of perspectives on Indigenous people.

A projectile point and a cutting tool found near the shore of Tupper Lake were both dropped shortly after the last ice age when the region was still a frozen tundra, well over 10,000 years ago. People were in the Adirondacks before it was a forest.
