Vanderwhacker

The Vanderwhacker Mountain Wild Forest is a 92,000-acre (370 km2) tract made up of almost 2 dozen non-contiguous parcels that are designated as Wild Forest by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation in the central Adirondack Park. The area contains 44 ponds and small lakes, and portions of the Hudson and Boreas Rivers. The area supports hiking, birding, snowmobiling, Nordic skiing, hunting, camping, canoeing, and fishing. The area is served by NY-28.

Boardwalk

This is another of the many board walks on the SUNY ESF property. At one point or another they have done extensive work on the trail to keep it up to a very high standard.

Thick White Pines

Almost to the top of Goodnow, there is a thick white pine forest. They appear to be about 60-80 years old, although they almost do not appear to be a man-made plantation, although they probably are a reforestation plantation.
