Adirondack Sports & Fitness is an outdoor recreation and fitness magazine covering the Adirondack Park and greater Capital-Saratoga region of New York State. We are the authoritative source for information regarding individual, aerobic, life-long sports and fitness in the area. The Adirondack Explorer is a nonprofit monthly regional newspaper devoted to exploring all facets of the wonderfully complex patchwork of lands, lakes, mountains, activities and issues that flourish within the Adirondack Park. They feature news and stories on recreational opportunities, wildlife, conservation, and history, as well as profiles of fascinating people and places. Book reviews, editorials, letters, an Adirondack calendar of events and a wildly popular "Its Debatable" forum that gives equal time to opposing sides of controversial issues are also featured. Franklin County, where the Paul Smiths campus is located, offers a wide range of recreational opportunities: canoeing, camping, hiking, biking, fishing, golfing, horseback riding, skiing, snowshoeing, and snowmobiling. This site, sponsored by Franklin County Tourism, is a comprehensive guide that includes canoe maps, adventure packages, and information on events and lodging. The Adirondack Museum at Blue Mountain Lake is well worth the one-hour drive from Paul Smith's campus. This site provides an on-line preview of the 32-acre Museum, which focuses on the history and cultural heritage of the Adirondack region. Adirondack Mountains Region This well-organized site, sponsored by the Adirondack Regional Tourism Council, provides an extensive listing of recreational opportunities throughout the Adirondack region, including detailed hiking maps, trail descriptions, and a guide to Adirondack waterways.

ADK's web site features information about outings, volunteer opportunities, ADK facilities, and local chapters (the two closest to PSC are Adirondak Loj and Keene Valley). Serious hikers can purchase ADK trail guides through the on-line shop. ORDA was created by New York State to manage the facilities used during the 1980 Olympic Winter Games at Lake Placid -- a half-hour ride from Paul Smiths campus. This site provides information on summer and winter events such as biking , skiing, skating, hiking and bobsled rides. Rainbow Lake Association This association has a lot of helpful information as well as a good map of the Rainbow Lake waterways.
