Pictures of the Week!

August 7-12, 2004

We took many photos during the summer of 2004.  The bad news is that we can’t make them all available to you over the internet -- yet.  The good news is that our campers and their families will be receiving, as they did in 2003, a DVD copy of our beautiful 4-week and 3-week slide shows.  The DVD will be sent out in the fall.

In the meantime, we’re looking of better ways to share with you all of our pictures, and you may enjoy the last and largest installment of pictures from the summer on this page.

A simulated vintage photo of the 46ers on the Pok-O-Moonshine staff.  Top row: John Sharp Swan, Jr., Erik Zimmerman, Shai Walker, David Durant, Ken Ryba, Grant Haynes.  Middle row: Phil Corell, Aaron Herman, Euan Reid, Coleman Blakeslee, Wendy Sayward, Scott McIntyre.  Bottom row: Mark Corell, Charles Steiner, Chris Durlacher, Ken Herz.

Pok-O’s finest Mountain Bikers prepared to begin the Tour de Pok-O Saturday.  The race would take the racers through the farthest reaches of Pok-O’s property.

Super Marcy #1 descends from the summit of Marcy on Thursday.  They enjoyed the nicest summit weather of any of the trips.  Giant of the Valley looms in the far distance.

Super Marcy #2, the Advanced Section’s trip from camp to Marcy and back, takes a rest at the Garden in Keene Valley.  For the other three Super Macry trips, this spot marked the termination of a lengthy, arduous hike.  For the Advanced Section, it was just a rest stop, with 30 miles left to go.  Pictured from left to right: Alex Durant, Evan Haynes, Grant Novak, Caleb Balderston, and Duncan Holley.

Super Marcy #3 at the end of its boat-ride across Lake Placid.  The trip was met there by some well-wishers from Camp.

Sometimes it only takes a trip up near-by Bare Mountain to remind us of why we simply cannot stay away from the Adriondack Mountains in the summertime.  The Point House and Masters’ Lodge at Pok-O-Moonshine are visible in the lower right-hand corner of the photo.

Despite her young age, first-year camper Hannah Karp was the hands-down champion of her division at the Big MacCready Horse Show.
