Severence Hill Trail

|

1.2 mile leg-stretcher hike, easily accessed from US 9, just south of Exit 28 Ticonderoga on the Adirondack Northway. Good views of Paradox Lake and Schroon Lake from this mountain. Trail goes under the Adirondack Northway in a culvert.

Red Falls

Hamlet outside of Prattville in the Northern Catskills. As the tax map overlay shows, these lands are city owned.

Snow Wheeling

|

I don't think those are snowmobile tracks on the snowmobile trail. The truth is there are fewer and fewer days when snowmobiling is viable locally, as the climate warms. Our season locally may have been marginal, but it's only gotten worse. Maybe riding an ATV on snowmobile trails is the future.

Ban single use glass bottles?

|

In 1953, the vermont State Legislature banned the name of non-returnable bottles. In 1957, the ban was repealed. At that time, the glass manufacturers argued that farmers exaggerated their claims of cows being injured by picking up splinters of glass in their stomach or that farm machinery was being damaged by roadside glass. The industry was being picked on, the manufacturers charged.

In 1971, with a reapportioned legislature and an important tourist economy, Vermont may be on the threshold of repeating its legislative action of almost two decades ago. One of the sponsors of the bill to ban sale of no-deposit beverage container is Frank L. Butnig from Brandon, Vermont.

If you support the legislation, please write Mr. Bunting or Governor Dean C. Davis, Montpellier, Vermont.
