Book Overview

Covering more ground than Yellowstone, Yosemite, and the Grand Canyon combined, the Adirondack Park is one of the great untouched wilderness areas in this country. Each year it attracts millions of visitors who come to hike, canoe, ski, or just enjoy the views. This panoramic volume presents a beautiful selection of images, including ten 360-degree shots. The images capture the tree-covered mountains in full autumnal glory, rivers hushed by winter...

the pictures take me back

Love the pictures and the quality of the photography. I haven't been to the Adirondaks in years, but the photos pull me back to the beauty.

Adirondacks: Mini

This was a gift to my husband who has hiked many of the high peaks. The pictures in this book were breathtaking.

Adirondacks : Mini -by: Carl Heilman

... truly awesome; must see to appreciate!

The Fullest Range With Majectic Moods!

Photographer Carl E. Hellman has crafted a collection of Adirondack photographs that continue to fascinate page after page. All aspects of this remarkable region are well represented from the wildest of waterways and majectic peaks to the outlying areas of cozy farms and inland towns. By far the most amazing photographs are those in wide-screen format - much wider than anything this reviewer has seen elsewhere. Ranging from awe-filled aerial views from high peaks in all seasons to the intimate settings of bogs and marshes, Hellman captures the mood of these mountains. Mist shrouded ponds, newly falling snow, green glimpses through mature virgin forests and close-ups from lady-slippers to primeval bogs; the viewer is mesmerized. Overwhelming beauty and the calm feeling of a lonely untouched wilderness is caught everywhere. This is a collector's item to cherish all year long.

Spectacular Photography

I was privilaged to be present at the slide show presented by Carl Heilman at the annual Adirondack Club dinner last autumn. Many exquisite pictures from this book were shown. Mr. Heilman has captured the true spirit of dawn in the mountains, children leaping with joy , winter landscapes, and especially the wild creatures that most of us may never be patient enough to discover in their natural homes.Many shots exhibit a seemingly impossible depth of field sharply focusing on both a spider web in the foreground and Mount Marcy in the background. The book is full of beautiful images not to be missed!
