On and off the trail: seventy years with
the Appalachian Mountain Club
presented by Fred Stott
April 19, 7:00pm in Memorial Hall
This is a tale told by Fred, a tale
of seventy years of kinship with the
Appalachian Mountain Club. It starts as
an eleven-year old boy who finds a
mountain (Chocorua), climbs it, loses
his way, finds it and stays connected
with both mountain and club for more
than seventy years. A tale of people and
of the land, especially the White
Mountains of New Hampshire.
Fred sees the Appalachian Mountain
Club, now more than 125 years old, as a
major player in determining how we
inhabitants of the northeastern United
States safeguard and use our land and
water for recreation -- what we have
done, are doing, and can do.
