Colvin Chronicles: Episode 7 — The Legacy of Verplanck ColvinIn our final episode, we explore Colvin’s life after the survey, his struggles following his removal, and the lasting impact of the work he gave nearly three decades to. But this isn’t just about how his story ended—it’s about what his life represents. Colvin wasn’t born into power. He was an ordinary man who saw something that mattered, took action, and committed himself fully to it. The Adirondacks were the vessel, but his legacy is much bigger: a reminder of what’s possible when you choose to step up, do the hard work, and fight for something greater than yourself.The Colvin Chronicles is dedicated to the memory of Casey Bard.SUPPORT CASEY BARD'S Family:Pick up some bbq sauce and seasoning at www.Tacticalories.com to support Casey's Adirondack-loving family.

The Colvin Chronicles—Episode 1 — The Man Before The MountainsBefore the Adirondacks were mapped, protected, or even fully understood, they were a vast and largely unknown wilderness. In this first episode of The Colvin Chronicles, we go back to the beginning to explore the early life of Verplanck Colvin and the path that led him to take on one of the most important roles in Adirondack history. This is the story of how one man’s curiosity, drive, and connection to the mountains set the stage for a survey that would ultimately change the future of the Adirondacks forever.The Colvin Chronicles is dedicated to the memory of Casey Bard.SUPPORT CASEY BARD'S Family:Pick up some bbq sauce and seasoning at www.Tacticalories.com to support Casey's Adirondack-loving family.
