A Day with John Burroughs

|

An interesting film featuring naturalist John Burroughs going about some daily business at one of his three Catskills homes, Woodchuck Lodge. He receives three child visitors, whom he attempts to introduce to the sublime beauty in their natural surroundings. Recorded in 1919 in prizma color, which adds a mystical quality to the filming.

Georgia Creek Crossing

|

Getting across the Georgia Creek on the Cotter Brook Trail is a risky venture, as the old snowmobile trail bridge is long abandoned, most of the planks gone, the telephone poles collapsing into the water. As I didn't want to get soaked, I didn't cross here.
