A steam shovel working at Benson Mines here in the Adirondacks in 1910. These tools were vital to many industries in the 19th and early 20th centuries, eventually being replaced by cheaper diesel-powered machines in the 1930s. #history #adirondacks #newyork

Navigating the Adirondacks was no easy task in the 1800s, that's why having a good guide was essential. Guides like Alvah Dunning (pictured here) knew the area well and would collect all the necessary materials and supplies to ensure their client's trip was pleasant and safe.

The Adirondacks were included in land to establish a Forest Preserve in 1885 which were meant to be "forever kept as wild forest lands." The Adirondack Park was then established in 1892 and in 1894, the "forever wild" clause was approved during a NYS Constitutional Convention.
