The old-time Adirondack Guide, an endangered 
species, could kindle a fire, climb a tree, cook a dinner, shoot a deer, hook 
a trout, or scent an animal quicker than any other man; could get a greenhoirn 
to where he wanted to go, prepare a tasty and nourishing meal along the trail, 
provide a guideboat for crossing the mountain lakes, and construct a comfortable 
sleeping quarter; could enjoy independent solitude as well as entertaining the 
"sports" with tales of danger and humor; and knew and loved his Adirondack 
territory. - Don Williams
