Катя. Часть 1

Жизнь шла своим чередом: пока дочь грызла гранит науки в университете, Катя целыми днями рисовала картины, а Сашка работал и пытался воспитывать собак. (Life went on as usual: while her daughter was gnawing on the granite of science at the university, Katya painted pictures all day long, and Sashka worked and tried to train dogs)

И если его успехи в воспитании питомцев были сомнительны, то успехи в работе были неоспоримы. На склоне лет он стал знаменитым шеф-поваром. (And if his success in training pets was questionable, his success in work was undeniable. In his later years he became a famous chef)

Теперь Сашка мог почивать на лаврах, а лучше всего это делать в отпуске. Тем более, что у него давно появилось стойкое желание отправиться в горы. Катя была немало удивлена и обрадована, когда супруг вынес упакованные чемоданы и сообщил, что их ждет такси до аэропорта. (Now Sashka could rest on his laurels, and this is best done on vacation. Moreover, he had long had a strong desire to go to the mountains. Katya was quite surprised and delighted when her husband brought out the packed suitcases and said that a taxi was waiting for them to the airport)

Конечно же они взяли в путешествие доченьку и заселились в пятизвездочный отель. (Of course, they took their daughter on the trip and checked into a five-star hotel)

Распарив старые косточки и отведав местных блюд, (After steaming old bones and tasting local dishes,)

супруги заказали пешую туристическую прогулку, во время которой нашли загадочный чемодан. Чтобы его открыть, путешественники сбросили его с дерева и разозлили пчел, устроивших в чемодане улей. Пришлось всем спасаться бегством. Заявление Кати о том, что она в восторге от отдыха, сквозило сарказмом. (The couple booked a hiking trip, during which they found a mysterious suitcase. To open it, travelers threw it from a tree and angered the bees who had built a hive in the suitcase. Everyone had to flee. Katya's statement that she was delighted with the holiday was laced with sarcasm)

Для снятия напряжения Катя отправилась на массаж, заодно изучив уникальную технику горцев, что улучшило ее настроение, и вечером она с Сашкой посетила мастер-класс по местным танцам. (To relieve tension, Katya went for a massage, at the same time learning the unique technique of the highlanders, which improved her mood, and in the evening she and Sashka attended a master class on local dances)

Побывать хотелось везде, поэтому путешественники, поспав несколько часов в отеле, пошли на бывшую лесопилку, где для туристов были заготовлены аттракционы и локации для фотосессий. (They wanted to visit everywhere, so the travelers, after sleeping for a few hours at the hotel, went to a former sawmill, where attractions and locations for photo shoots were prepared for tourists)

Вот только явились они задолго до открытия. В ожидании рассвета супруги грелись у костра и завтракали жареным зефиром. (But they arrived long before the opening. While waiting for dawn, the couple warmed themselves by the fire and ate roasted marshmallows for breakfast)

Испортившаяся погода не помешала им поучаствовать в соревнованиях на бревне с последующим принятием водных процедур. (The bad weather did not prevent them from participating in competitions on the balance beam followed by water procedures)

Карина мокнуть под дождем не хотела, но зонтик не спас ее от воды. (Karina didn’t want to get wet in the rain, but her umbrella didn’t save her from the water)

Попозировав для фотографий и метнув напоследок топоры, (After posing for photographs and throwing axes for the last time,)

семья поспешила на местный рынок за сувенирами, где Катя купила себе подвеску ручной работы. Сашка же сам не догадается ей подарок сделать. (the family hurried to the local market for souvenirs, where Katya bought herself a handmade pendant. Sashka himself wouldn’t think of giving her a gift)

Behind the Scenes…a Life in the Details

Perhaps on a past visit to the museum you have noticed the large, heavy wooden doors and wondered what lay beyond. You might have seen staff members using these doors to access the mysterious spaces beyond and wondered what they do.  Maybe when you think of the museum, you think in terms of its ‘collections,’ which are vast—specimens, artifacts, dinosaur bones, gems, and more. Indeed, many of the museum staff do manage the collections, tirelessly cataloguing, preparing, and preserving our Natural History.

This past January, we had the opportunity to celebrate the work of Marilyn Niedermeier who was employed at the museum for almost 43 years! In a quiet corner of the third floor, behind a door labeled “Section of Birds,” Marilyn spent her career caring for a collection of data.

Since 2007, Marilyn was the person in charge of data gathered at the Bird Banding Lab at Powdermill Nature Reserve, the Carnegie Museum’s scientific research station in the Laurel Highlands, about an hour (58 miles) southeast of Oakland.

Started in 1961, the Powdermill Avian Research Center bands about 10,000 birds per year and processes another 3-4,000 recaptured birds (already banded). Marilyn’s job was to organize, proof, catalogue and submit those data to the National Banding Lab. How did she do all that from 58 miles away, and what does that collection of data look like?

In the early days, long before the invention of desktop computers, Powdermill data were handwritten on paper data sheets which were hand-delivered to the museum up until 2010! Although they rarely met face-to-face, Bob Leberman (founder of the banding program) and Marilyn frequently exchanged hand-written letters to resolve discrepancies in the data.  Reports to the banding lab were prepared on a typewriter and snail-mailed to Maryland.

Over the years, as the database grew bird by bird, Marilyn witnessed many changes in the way the data was handled, from the antiquated computer punch cards (so advanced for the time) to the evolving world of desktop computing. As the binders filled up with datasheets, Marilyn navigated through several iterations of software needed to maintain the growing database and soon hand-written letters were replaced by email and eventually the data sheets were replaced by a direct-entry program at the Powdermill banding lab. Even with direct-entry of data, it doesn’t end there. The data must still be checked for accuracy and consistency and then submitted to the national lab.

For the over two decades, Marilyn worked tirelessly, with a ready smile, under a sign above her desk that read “No one notices what I do until I don’t do it!” Through her efforts and that of the scientists at Powdermill who faithfully collect the data each banding day, the dataset of the Powdermill Avian Research Center is one of the largest and most accurate in the country. Marilyn, we wanted to say, “We noticed,” and we couldn’t have done it without you!

Mary Shidel is a Field Assistant at Carnegie Museum of Natural History’s Powdermill Nature Reserve. Museum employees are encouraged to blog about their unique experiences and knowledge gained from working at the museum.

Arrow - ‘Brothers and Sisters’ Review

“There’s two of you now?”

Wow! Everything about this became so unbelievably clear.  Two sets of siblings attempt to forge connections after years spent apart.  I get the answers to most of my niggling questions.  And, we get an extra special guest star.  **Squee**

Let start with our future siblings.  It turns out that William’s departure to his grandparent’s home is permanent.  There is not a second bequeathing of the hozen or second departure as I speculated.  This is depressing since Jack Moore finally proved he could hold his own with the rest of the cast instead of just serving as the plot complication he normally did.  It’s also disquieting.  It means that someone, presumably Grandma and Grandpa Clayton, deliberately kept Oliver and Felicity from contacting William ever again.

Which is why he had no idea he had a sister.  Mia was aware of William though it’s not clear what she believed happened to him.  What is clear is Mia never knew her father.  And while Felicity never stopped thinking of or referring to Oliver as a hero, in true daughter-like fashion, Mia didn’t believe her.  It makes me wonder whose decision it was for Mia to use the last name Smoak.

Curiosity brings the brother and sister together regardless of their trust issues.  William justified his parents’ absence with the belief they were trying to protect him but Mia’s existence gives him pause.  Mia was convinced that her father’s actions caused the downfall of Star City (which may still be true) and despite Felicity’s claims, he was no hero.  William can provide a second opinion.  Their mutual desire to find Felicity and put together the puzzle pieces of their family lead not only to a cease-fire but a tentative agreement to work together.   And now that they have a lead...

Which brings us to our current set of siblings.  Oliver, as usual, has the best of intentions.  Upon learning of Emiko’s mother’s murder he vows to help her find the killer.  Unfortunately, Oliver, as usual, believes he knows best.  Now that he is working within the confines of the law everyone else should too.  He conveniently skips over the many times he equated vengeance with justice and meted out both.  And, as Rene says, stubbornness runs in the family.  Emiko is unwilling to take a back seat on her own mission.  Which leads to yet another confrontation between Ollie and his sister and another breach of trust.

How strange is it that Wild Dog is now the voice of reason, pointing out Oliver’s hypocrisy, and reminding him Emiko needs a brother, not a protector or mentor.  Luckily Oliver is not as stubborn (or as dense) as he once was.  He goes back to Emiko with an apology and the information she seeks.  Like their future counterparts, they arrive at an uneasy alliance if not a true understanding.  The only question is whether Emiko can be trusted now that we finally learned where she picked up her mysterious fighting skills.  Dante.

We are introduced to Dante and if you were anything like me it was worth the wait.  According to the Joss Whedon school of storytelling when the resident badass is afraid of someone that person becomes scary by default. Diaz, destroyer of the Quadrant and established Big Bad, is afraid of Dante. Ergo Dante is the Bigger Bad.  And if you weren’t sure, Diaz’s demise solidified it.  And Dante was one scary dude.  Virgil, his emissary, jumped out of a window rather than return in defeat.  And when Diaz informed him of the setup, Dante killed the Princess and Deputy Director Bell on the suspicion they sold him out.

The icing was realizing Dante was none other than Adrian Paul.  I know I’m dating myself but I’ve been a fan of his since Highlander premiered back in ‘92.  I squealed in delight when he graced my screen and the grin did not leave my face till long after the episode ended.  And for a man nearing 60, he can still move!  What a perfect piece of casting.

Then there’s Felicity.  Past and present, or rather present and future.  Our current iteration has been going through her own crucible this season with this being her final test.  Would she cross the line and become a killer or remain a hero?  There was no foregone conclusion.  Felicity has been on a pretty dark path for a while now.   Though I must admit, after the multiple “I’ll back your play” speeches, I had my suspicions about which path she’d choose.  And I was proved correct when Felicity allowed Diaz to be taken into custody rather than exacting vengeance.

Future Felicity remains an open question since the person who knows her best is neither objective nor trustworthy.  Has the never-ending cycle of Big Bad after Big Bad made Felicity paranoid?  Or did Oliver’s presumed death do that?  Considering that everyone who knew about the plans to blow up Star City is dead or missing, should we even call it paranoia?

Felicity is not the only remaining question. I can understand why Roy didn’t know about Mia, but why didn’t Dinah? And why did Diggle? It’ll only be a few months before Felicity starts showing.  So whatever is going to happen, it's going to happen soon. So when does Dig get around to adopting Connor?  And if Connor is Diggle’s adopted son, what that hell happened to J.J.?

I enjoyed the hell out of this episode just as I’m enjoying the hell out of this season.  However, if the future we’re witnessing comes to pass, Oliver ultimately failed in his mission to save his city and after everything he’s been through, he deserves better than for that to be his legacy.

4 out of 5 mini cassettes  

Parting Thoughts:  

If everything we heard is true, I wonder if William started his quest under false pretenses.  I find it hard to believe it was Felicity that placed Lian Yu’s coordinates in the hozen.  She would have needed far more future knowledge than she appears to have.

Felicity’s fears of not being able to protect herself and her family from Diaz may have been resolved but the paranoia that Mia speaks of may be well founded.

Speaking of Diaz, the irony of him going out in a blaze of glory did not go unnoticed.  It was a fire that created the Dragon and it was a fire that destroyed him.  Is this the new version of ashes to ashes?

Is it me or are Mia and Connor about to have a very pointed conversation about trust and lies?

Dante said Bell was one of the many installed at A.R.G.U.S.  Do it detect a whiff of Hydra?

If Diggle takes the fall for Lyla, can he still work with Team Arrow at the SCPD?

Quotes:

Rene: “Listen, I’m not trying to get in the middle of any family drama.” Oliver: “Too late.”

Diggle: “You’re supposed to be training.  Not trying to kill each other.” Cupid: “Aww.  Why you got to ruin all the fun.”

William: “So where do we start?” Mia: “Yeah. I’m not looking for any kind of family reunion here, bro.” William: “Oh, I am sorry Sis. But I have come too far to get sidelined now.”

China White: “So our first mission is a meeting.  That is way below our pay grade.” Cupid: “Wait, we’re getting paid?”

Laurel: “Trust me.  I would be thrilled to see his head explode, but is it really worth the consequences?" Felicity: “Yes it is worth every consequence. I have to protect my family.” Laurel: “By family you mean you, Oliver, and your baby?” Felicity: “What, are you psychic now?”

Mia: “You guys are just junkies looking for a hero fix.”

Diaz: “Once Dante figures this all out, and he will, you all will be wishing for the mercy of a quick death.”

Laurel: (to Felicity) “I don’t know if you noticed but you’re kind of a badass.”

Oliver: “There’s a right way and a wrong way to do this.” Emiko: “The only thing I’ve done wrong, is to think that I could ever trust you.“

Felicity: “I thought Dante was the objective.” Diggle: “He is the objective.  Just not the priority.”

Emiko: “I didn’t realize Oliver Queen did apologies.”

Avocado Dye Is, Naturally, Millennial Pink

To make natural dye from avocados, all you need are the pits. Those golden-brown seeds, so slippery when first removed, contain a milky, tannin-rich liquid that blooms into a startling red ink when simmered in water.

First, wash the pits and dry them. Then, boil them in a pot filled with enough water to cover the fabric (about five pits per half-pound of fabric). As the seeds dance around the liquid, slowly knocking into each other, their shells will peel off and crack open, turning the water a bright ruby red. Let it steep overnight.

The next day, add damp fabric until the color looks right. (Any pre-washed fabrics should be soaked in warm water the previous night so the color takes.) Don’t strive for perfection: Each attempt will be different, imperfect, otherworldly and pink.

This deceptively simple process is an art form in the hands of María Elena Pombo. A clothing designer from Venezuela, Ms. Pombo, 30, is part of a group of millennial makers who work with plant-based dyes, which tend to be more sustainable and make use of vegetable scraps that might otherwise be abandoned. From her studio, on an industrial stretch of Ingraham Street in Brooklyn’s East Williamsburg neighborhood, Ms. Pombo creates exquisite made-to-order clothing dyed with all kinds of organic refuse, including walnut shells, annatto seeds and onion skins. But avocado pits are her main medium.

Her company, Fragmentario, is equal parts fashion experiment and educational initiative. In addition to selling clothing, Ms. Pombo offers workshops on how to extract beguiling colors from botanical materials.

The results are uneven by nature. Variations in water minerality and pH, not to mention the inevitable addition of pollutants, affect the shades of plant-based dyes. Hard water, which is full of minerals like calcium and magnesium, can make colors more vibrant, while softer water produces more muted tones. Plant-based fibers like cotton or linen will typically mellow the dye, while animal-derived fibers like wool or silk yield richer hues.

But Ms. Pombo approaches her pigments with a methodical sensibility that reflects her earlier training in engineering. There are beakers, burners and tongs, and jars filled with water sourced from all over the world in her studio, along with meticulous spreadsheets that trace dye experiments and tests. “I’m doing this hand process but it’s very controlled,” she said.

Avocados, Before Millennials

We can thank giant prehistoric sloths for the dispersal of avocados. The Lestodons, as the sloths are known, could grow to be 15 feet long, and they spent their days roaming around South America during the Cenozoic era, swallowing avocados whole and spreading fruit trees in their wake. Though humans began cultivating the fruit as early as 5,000 years ago, one of the earliest published descriptions of the avocado is from 1519: The “edible fruit,” wrote the geographer and conquistador Martin Fernandez de Enciso in a document called Suma de geographia, is “like butter” and “of marvelous flavor, so good and pleasing to the palate that it is a marvelous thing.”

The seeds understandably play second fiddle to this “marvelous” fruit — now so in-demand that the United States imported nearly 2 billion pounds of Hass avocados from Mexico in 2018 alone. But there is evidence the humble pit has long been used for dye or ink. In a paper published in 1964, a Spanish art historian, Santiago Sebastian, wrote that many surviving documents from the Spanish conquest of Central and South America were reportedly written using ink derived from the seeds. And its application to textiles goes back generations, though it is often not preserved in the written record.

“Avocado pink is a bit of a mystery,” said Jennifer Gómez Menjívar, an associate professor of Spanish and Latin American studies at the University of Minnesota, Duluth. “What we know about it has been preserved through oral histories.” For example, the Kuna people who have lived in northeastern Panama and the neighboring San Blas Islands since pre-Hispanic times, mention the use of avocado to dye fabrics in their creation story. But traces of alpaca and llama wool dyed with avocado seeds have been unearthed in archaeological sites as well, notably in the Andean highlands where the Aymara and Quechua people have resided.

Unlike dyes made of onion skins or flowers — where the end product often closely resembles the color of the material — the dye of avocado seeds is “very magical,” Ms. Pombo said. “I would never have imagined that it was going to be pink.”

There are many types of avocados, and thus, many possible shades of avocado pink; the species, part of the laurel family, is generally divided into three botanical races — Mexican, Guatemalan and West Indian — but cross-pollination permits the development of unlimited varieties.

The variety that grew in Ms. Pombo’s yard in her family home in Caracas, called Fuerte, is green-skinned, pear-shaped and double the size of the Hass variety commonly found in the U.S. The seed announces itself when ripe, rattling in the groove inside the fruit like a maraca. Those avocados, Ms. Pombo said, “remind me of home.”

But for her first avocado-dyed clothing collection she used Hass avocado seeds, sourcing them from four different delis in Bushwick. Because storage space at the delis was limited, this meant shuttling to each location twice a week, to pick up around 20 pits each time. It also meant hours spent catching up with the owners and employees when Ms. Pombo dropped in for a pickup.

The outcome was a line of uniform garments, available in linen, silk or a sheer silk-organza-and-cotton blend, that were hand-dyed — down to the button — in a dusty pink shade that calls to mind a bone-dry rose. The garments, which were sold through Instagram, didn’t come cheap: Prices ranged from $300 for a linen shirt to $1,580 for a silk shantung jacket. But Ms. Pombo said that the carefully fabricated pieces are meant to be heirloom items — unique and inheritable. “The idea is to slow down and have a more thoughtful relationship with what we’re consuming,” she said.

One Man’s Trash

Last summer at one of Ms. Pombo’s onion-dyeing workshop, held at McLeod’s Community Garden in Brownsville, Brooklyn, (and offered free-of-charge through a grant from the New York Restoration Project) nearly 50 participants gathered around bins full of waterlogged onion skins, waiting for their turn to dunk scarves and bandannas. Bits of detritus mingled with the fabric as it soaked, imbuing the charmeuse and chiffon with a rusty red hue.

While participants waited patiently for the alchemy to take effect, Ms. Pombo spoke about the beauty that could be wrung from food waste.

“We ask a lot of questions about where our food comes from, but we do not think the same about textiles,” Ms. Pombo said. “By using food waste, you give them a second life, creating beauty of something that would be considered garbage.” (Ms. Pombo now sources her seeds from Arepera Guacuco, a Venezuelan restaurant in Brooklyn. Every week the restaurant fills up a gallon-size Mason jar with about a 100 pits for her use; she grinds most of them with a Vitamix for easier storage.)

Her maternal grandmother, Ligia de Reyes, was sitting in a white plastic patio chair nearby, beaming with pride. Ms. Reyes, who is 80, was visiting Brooklyn from Cabimas, Venezuela, for the first time. Her family left Venezuela slowly, but is now mostly displaced from the country, which is mired in severe economic collapse and devastation.

“I didn’t know how to have this kind of fragmented family structure,” Ms. Pombo said. Her parents are in Canada and her brother lives in London. But both her grandmothers remain in Venezuela. “Nostalgia is such a part of my identity now because it’s not like I can just go back home,” she said. “What remains is a shell of what it was once.”

In 2018, Ms. Pombo became eligible to apply for a green card, which meant that she couldn’t leave the U.S. at all. It was a hard change; the avocado seed workshops had taken her to Italy, Spain and Germany, where she taught workshops; each city produced a unique shade of “avocado pink” from the different water properties and dye-making conditions. (The water in Barcelona and Madrid resulted in more reddish colors, but it was Paris’ hard water that yielded the most extreme pink.)

Realizing she wouldn’t be able to travel for a while, Ms. Pombo began asking friends to send her water from their journeys. Strangers and fans on social media followed suit. Bottles began arriving from Chicago, New Delhi and interesting sources, like the Dead Sea. “Getting those waters from people, that was really beautiful,” Ms. Pombo recalled, visibly moved. Being stuck in New York helped her find a new way to connect with the world. A second clothing line started to take shape. “Everyone has been a part of the collection,” she said. “It inspired a practice for what the color could be like, a sense of playfulness.”

The new pieces, all silk and made-to-order, range from $300 for a scarf to $2,200 for a hand-pleated silk organza dress. The silhouettes are similar to her last collection, but this time the diaphanous textiles are ruched and steamed before dyeing, and the shades vacillate between tones of blush, rust and rose. The results look wild, unwieldy and unpredictable, reflecting the variability of different water samples from around the world.

One of her best friends from Venezuela grounded in San Luis Potosi, Mexico, because her passport had expired and Venezuela has not issued her a new one, was for a long time unable to visit New York. She mailed Ms. Pombo the water she collected from Mexico anyway. “It’s nice,” Ms. Pombo said. “Because we did this together, but away.”

Sam’s Point Preserve & Ice Caves

Sam’s Point Overlook: 1.2 miles roundtrip Ice Caves: 3.1 miles roundtrip Ice Caves + Loop Road: 4 miles roundtrip

Pick a day to hop in the car, drive two hours north of New York City (depending on traffic of course), and you’ll find yourself in one of the most scenic and unique areas of New York State. The New York portion of the Shawangunk Ridge stretches from the New Jersey border towards the Hudson River. Located along this ancient ridge, Sam’s Point, the Ice Caves, and neighboring Bear Hill, provide some of the best outdoor experiences in the Hudson Valley.

The view from these particular points are impressive by anyone’s standards. Even the drive to the visitor center is incredibly scenic. Once at the visitor center you’ll be asked to pay a $10 parking fee, which is well worth it. Pick up a trail map, grab an extra bottle of water, and head up onto the ridge. The trail begins as a relatively wide gravel road, which gently switchbacks up the mountain side.

This area is prone to occasional wildfires. As you begin your ascent, the blackened tree bark on the righthand side of the trail, stands as the first reminder of the recent blazes. The Visitor center has a “Fire Danger” meter installed, so always be aware of the fire risk before starting your hike.

A little further up the path, the looming cliffs come into view. They appear as if they are leaning forward, trying to consume the trail. The gravel road soon gives way to an older and narrower paved road. Once on the ridge top the trail forks. To the left is Sam’s Point, while continuing straight leads you towards the Ice Caves and several additional trailheads.

On windy days, the view from Sam’s Point can literally take your breath away. The intense panoramic view allows you to see all the way from the Catskills to High Point, New Jersey. Though similar to the view from Bear Hill, located slightly further down the ridge, Sam’s Point has its own unique wonder. The light-colored crags stand like pillars holding up the mountain. From the top, your views seems to extend endlessly towards the horizon.

Not only is this nature preserve rich in beauty, but also rich in history, and surrounded by folklore. As a kid growing up in the area, I would often hear stories about the legend of Sam’s Point. According to local tales, the rocky outcropping was named after “Sam”, whose famed leap from the cliff-top still sticks in my mind. After being chased up the ridge by Native Americans, with little chance of survival, Sam decided to jump into the tree tops below. Why he was being chased was always unclear, as was his ultimate fate. The ridge also holds the history of the seasonal Huckleberry Pickers, who for over a century made their living harvesting the ridge’s plentiful wild blueberries, during the warm summer months.

Spend some time admiring the view and enjoying the silence that accompanies it. After you’ve had your fill you can continue back towards the main trail, following signs for the Ice Caves. The charred pines, devastated by the fire, stand out dramatically from the bright green undergrowth below. The right side of the trail is completely blackened, while the rare Dwarf Pines that line the left hand side remain unharmed. Though it may seem detrimental, naturally occurring forest fires can actually benefit and help stimulate the growth of new trees and plants atop the ridge.

The warm air, mixed with the scent of pine, simply can’t be beat. It’s the same sweet scent that can be found in the red rock country of the American west, or up high in the Adirondack peaks. A particularly calming and rejuvenating smell.

As you descend towards the Ice Caves you can spot the Hudson Highlands in the far distance. The temperature immediately drops several degrees upon entering the caves. With slippery rocks and narrow passages, I would not recommend this portion of the trail for people with claustrophobia. Sturdy footwear is also a plus. Some sections of the caves are completely dark, though the preserve has installed several motion-sensor lights that make navigating these sections easier. Even in the mid-summer heat, your breath is still visible in the cool air of the caves.

Though the trail can be tricky at times (be sure to follow the white trail markings), it always keeps things interesting, with some mild rock scrambling, and the occasional wooden ladder to climb. You’ll pass some small pools, fed by ice-cold underground springs. Keep a look out for patches of snow that the caves keep frozen throughout the summer, acting as a natural mountain cooler.

When you finally exit the caves, the trail provides another gorgeous view, made even more spectacular by the blooming mountain laurel and wildflowers. If you want to extend your hike you can follow the loop road around Lake Maratanza. The pure clear waters and gentle sound of the waves are peaceful. I usually take a break on the shores of the lake before looping back down towards the parking area. As you trek back down the loop road, look off into the woods to see the remains of the old Huckleberry Picker’s cabins. The foundation is all that’s left of most of them, due to lack of maintenance since their abandonment in the mid 1900’s. Yet a couple still stand as a slowly fading monument to a way of life that no longer exists on the ridge. As with the story of Sam, stories of the mysterious Huckleberry Pickers have been passed down through generations as well.

The easiest way to access the Preserve coming from the NYC area is from the east side of the ridge, yet if you want one more spectacular view before heading home, take route 52 along the western side of the Shawangunks towards Ellenville. The windy road curves along the mountain edge, with several scenic pull-offs offering birds-eye views of the entire Catskill range and some of the best roadside views anywhere in the Northeast.

Sam’s Point and the Ice Caves are a true treasure of New York State, and the subject of some of my earliest and fondest hiking memories.
