Adirondack Mountain Club 2009 Calendar

The latest edition of ADK s award-winning calendar features accomplished Adirondack nature photographers Nancie Battaglia, Mark Bowie, Joanne Kennedy, Mark Meschinelli, and Hardie Truesdale. Among the monthly photographs are views of Lake Placid, Mount Marcy, the Shawangunks, Lake Champlain, Lake George, Lake Colden, and the Catskills. These classic, full-color photographs are complemented by smaller spore-print images created by Sam Ristich and Carol Shaw. These are produced by placing mushrooms or woody fungus on paper. The late Sam Ristich, known as the mushroom guru of Sligo Road, was a well known teacher and speaker on things mycological.
