Happy Earth Day from all of us at Great Camp Santanoni! 💚🌎 we are so thankful for this beautiful historic site and nature preserve, which we get to share with you, the public. Since the Pruyns occupation in the late 19th century to today, Santanoni has been a special retreat for relaxation and rest with the Adirondack wilderness. A visit to Santanoni is a visit to a wilderness refuge, built with the intention to blend in with the nature around it. Please keep Santanoni beautiful for everyone who visits. Follow the Leave No Trace principles when you arrive. Stay tuned for updates about the 2024 season and our planned activities for the summer!! . . . #greatcamps #earthday #adkwild #adk #adirondacks

We spotted this buddy at the Gate Lodge, but we didn't dare get any closer...🐢💚 #adk #adirondacks #wildlife #snappingturtle #turtlesofinstagram

Thinking about the sun on this cloudy day...⛅️❤️ We hope you're all having a pleasant week. Did you get out and enjoy the warm weather yesterday? Stay warm and dry this week! #adk #adks #adirondacks #historichomes #Adirondackcamp #historicarchitecture

Happy Eclipse Day, everyone! We're so thrilled that the weather is holding out for those of us up here in the North Country. Even if it's cloudy during totality, we're still excited to experience this celestial event in the Adirondacks ✨️❤️🌞 📣 be aware that we are not hosting any events at Santanoni for today's Eclipse. Our trail is always open, so please feel free to hike into camp if you'd like, but prepare accordingly. We are still in mud season!! And there might still be snow on the trail. Bring snowshoes and microspikes, and wear appropriate footware. 📣 We're still technically in our off-season, despite the recent influx of visitors into the park for the Eclipse. Stay tuned to our social media pages and @adkarch as we approach the summer and tour season! Feel free to message us in the meantime if you have questions about visiting. Until then, have a safe and fun viewing today! 🌞🌚 . . . #adk #adkmountains #eclipse2024 #greatcampsantanoni #greatcamps #wildlife

It is an unseasonably (albeit a little windy) beautiful day at Santanoni today! If you have the time, we have the perfect weather for a hike. Don't forget to prepare for mud! Our Historic Site Manager was happy to see so many visitors at the trailhead this afternoon. Don't forget, if you visit, please tag us in your photos 📸 and we'll share them with our followers! Happy Friday! . . . #ADK #adkmountains #springvibes #springfever #adirondacks #adirondackmountains #historicpreservation #historichomes #adirondackcabin #cabininthewoods

Come and say hi to us at the Adirondack Sports Expo in Saratoga Springs, March 16th and 17th!

We hope to see you there 💙💚 . . . #discovernewcomb #greatcampsantanoni #Santanoni #greatcamps #saratogasprings #adirondackexpo #adirondacks #discoveradk

After the warm weather and rain, the Santanoni Road has patchy snow and ice. Our volunteers are trading their skis for boots with spikes and are looking forward to an unusual early spring hike. It may not be as wintry as we’d like, but we’re looking forward to toasting spring with a cup of hot chocolate and warmer weather for tours of the camp! . . . #adkevents #adirondacks #winteradk #adkwild #springvibes #adirondackweekend

On International Women's Day, we honor the adventurous, fierce, and playful women of Camp Santanoni. Women's experiences in the Adirondack wilderness and the sense of freedom that they felt there are at the heart of the stories we tell at Santanoni. Huybertie's vibrant tales and Anna's delightful photographs bring the Camp to life again and underline the fundamental truth that women's history is everyone's history 🌲 . . . #IWD2024 #womenshistorymonth #historicadirondacks #campsantanoni #greatcamps #adk #historicphotos

We're still actively thinking about the Eclipse Event here at the Santanoni Preserve. Officially, we have no plans for events or programs at Santanoni during the Eclipse. Please refer to @discover_newcomb and the special events related to the Eclipse in Newcomb! Please plan accordingly if you are visiting the Adirondacks for this event. We expect that our area will be congested, due to high volumes of visitors to the different Eclipse events at each town in the area. Additionally, the weather changes quickly up here during the Spring. There could be snow on the ground, or thick mud. It could be raining, hailing, or snowing. Please refer to @nysdec and their rules and regulations about hiking in the High Peaks, especially if you are not familiar with our region. Lastly, we ask that you respect the Preserve if you are planning on visiting us for the Eclipse. We are so excited to be a part of Totality, as this is a rare, once in a lifetime opportunity! However, April is muddy and messy, and if the ground is still soft, please avoid walking through the grass and stick to our trail. We want to make sure that Santanoni is maintained for everyone visiting, now and as we approach the summer season! We will post more as we approach April. Please message us for questions, or refer to the Town of Newcomb for information about local events throughout this weekend. #adk #aprileclipse #eclipse2024 #greatcampsantanoni #hikingtips #discovernewcomb

It is an unseasonably BEAUTIFUL day in the Adirondacks 😍❤️☀️ the highs today in Newcomb will peak around the low 50s. We have some more winter weather on the way before we officially hit spring, so enjoy this warmth and sun while you can. Don't forget that we're still looking for summer interns! Students and post-grads who are interested in history, historic interpretation, historic preservation, and/or tourism and recreation, are encouraged to apply!
