Description

In this episode, we crack open the ADK Talks mailbag — and you did not hold back. From the mysteries of the blue line to the origins of the word Adirondack, from Great Camps you can actually stay in to the surprisingly wholesome truth about nudists in the Adirondacks… you kept us laughing, thinking, and occasionally Googling just to make sure we weren’t making things up.

We share the questions that made us stop mid-sentence, the ones that sent us down rabbit holes through history, and the ones that reminded us why we love this wild, weird, wonderful park. Somewhere along the way, we talk about road signs that don’t quite know where they are, a Westport chair that became a global icon, and a stream named after an abandoned pair of BVDs. (If that isn’t peak Adirondack, we don’t know what is.)

It’s curious, quirky, and just plain fun. It’s a chance to explore the Adirondacks the way we love doing it: following your questions, wandering off trail now and then, and celebrating all the stories tucked into these 6 million acres.
