"I want as game protectors men of courage, resolution & hardihood who can handle the rifle, axe and paddle; who can camp out in summer or winter; who can go on snowshoes, if necessary; who can go through the woods by day or by night without regard to trails." Governor Teddy Roosevelt, 1899.
Learn about one of our pioneer Guides, Mitchell Sabattis (1823-1906) was an Abenaki Indian and one of the most famous of Adirondack guides. He was perhaps the most sought-after guide, still guiding well into his 60s. Today's innovative guide, Northwood Field Guides, offers description of animal tracks, fly fishing, wild flowers, trees, insects and even constellations. Visit their site and many other fine guide services below.
