Happy birthday Adirondack Almanack

Friends over at Adirondack Almanack are marking the fourth anniversary of their site. The Almanack is one of the few independent blogs I read regularly as it offers the best online concentration of news and features about the Adirondack Park.

The blog was created by Chestertown writer and historian John Warren. But Saranac Lake residents Mary Thill and Mark Wilson (a regular commenter on this blog) joined The Almanack team earlier this year to offer a different perspective.

Wilson authored the quirky and much followed Adirondack Bracket, a local spoof of college basketball's March Madness. Stewart's defeated the Northville/Placid Trail in a controversial final.

The Almanack has indicated that they will be adding "contributors in departments more closely focused on outdoor sports, environmental policy, history and culture, entertainment and events, and politics in the Adirondack region."

The Almanack definitely worth following if you don't already.
