The Northville Placid Trail immerses hikers in adventure, wilderness, and history. Completion of the trail in 1924 was one of the first acts of the newly-formed Adirondack Mountain Club (ADK). ADK’s Deputy Director will share stories of the trail’s construction, its current state, and how sustainable trail design could improve the NPT for the future. Like all trails, the NPT has its share of personal stories, which will be interspersed throughout the presentation.
