SUMMARY:Hike Hotel Kaaterskill
DESCRIPTION:Important–Reports from the National Weather Service continue to show rain\, thunder\, and muggy weather for Saturday May 17. As a result\, we’re changing the date of our hike to the Hotel Kaaterskill site to Sunday May 18th. If you are registered for the hike\, you should receive an email giving the time and location of our meeting site. We apologize for the inconvenience. \nThe Historical Society has gathered a vast amount of material on the Hotel Kaaterskill in the past several years that really bring the Hotel to light. An 1883 survey of the of the building apparently created for insurance purposes allows us pinpoint everything from the elevator shafts to the location of the ice house\, bowling alley\, water tower barns\, and more. Photos donated to the society by the great grandson of Hotel Kaaterskill owner George Harding (also named George) give images of the hotel not seen elsewhere. The photos of the grounds and hotel interior were taken in the 1920s when the Harding family was preparing to sell the building and are the most extensive interior shots that we have seen. They include the only known shot of the interior of the bridge between the main building and the annex and others of the courtyard.  We will take the carriage road used to take Hotel visitors from the railroad stop at South Lake to the Hotel Kaaterskill grounds. Elevation Gain approximately 500 ft. Distance 3 to 4 miles round trip (depending on optional excursions). The group will meet at 9:00 AM and return at approximately 3:00 PM. Meeting place will be established closer to the date of the hike. A per-car day use charge may be charged on entering the campground. A per-car day use charge may be charged on entering the campground. \n\nHike Leader: Bob Gildersleeve co-lead with George Hewitt\nDifficulty: Moderate (some rock scrambles possible)\n\nLimited to 20 participants.

SUMMARY:Bird Watching at the MTHS Pond
DESCRIPTION:Birdwatching at the MTHS pond for all experience levels. There will be 2 opportunities to join this event. The first group will meet at 8:30 AM and the second group will meet at 4:30 PM. Birds are active in both the early morning and the late afternoon. Come for one or for both sessions each day to see and hear different aspects of avian activity depending on the time of day. Binoculars\, field guides\, and a sketch pad are nice to have\, but not required. Cell phones with bird ID apps can be fun to have\, too. Park at the MTHS KRT parking lot. It’s just a short walk to the pond area. Join us for part or all of each session. Heavy rain cancels. No dogs please — they tend to scare the birds away. \nThe Group will be guided by Nancy Allen. \nRegistration is required. For more information or to register\, please email mthsdirector@mths.org or call 518-589-6657
