VISION 2050

The Adirondack Park is a national treasure – a legacy we inherited more than 100 years ago – that we must collectively protect for current and future generations. The Adirondack Council, with input from experts and other stakeholders, offers VISION 2050 to achieve a future with intact natural systems, vibrant and diverse human communities, and cutting-edge management. This proposal for a long-range strategy for the next 30 years of the Adirondack Park offers a path forward.

With Gratitude

We recognize, with deep appreciation, our supporters, trustees, members, staff, and partners who have played a vital role in advancing our mission and safeguarding the Adirondack Park for future generations.

It is the lessons we carry with us from the past 50 years, our growing network of supporters, and the resilience of this extraordinary landscape that bolster our commitment to fulfilling the promise of the Park.

Thank You!
