Panther Gorge explores the history one of the most remote regions in New York's Adirondack High Peak region. Two thousand feet deep and riddled with sheer cliffs, the chasm lies between Mts. Marcy and Haystack, the state's first and third highest points. A surprisingly rich history begins on a pathless landscape and includes visits by the earliest Adirondack pioneers including surveyor Verplanck Colvin, guides O.S. Phelps and Jim Goodwin, author Alfred B. Street, and a host of others. Panther Gorge also documents the author's explorations into the region during the period from 2009-2018 to pioneer new rock and ice climbs. Detailed narratives, over 170 color photographs, maps, and route plates allow the reader to vicariously experience one of the most mysterious places in the Adirondack high country.

Verplanck Colvin worked twenty-eight years as the superintendent of the Topographical Survey of the Adirondack Mountains, one of the last great frontiers of the East. This collection of essays - compiled by preeminent conservationist Paul Schaefer - reveals Colvin's many perspectives on the Adirondacks. His writings reflect on outdoorsman's appreciation of the wilderness, with a poet's unerring sense for its beauty. One of Colvin's best-known contributions involved sharpening surveying techniques, thus making property boundaries cleared and taxes fairer. And as an early advocate for the preservation of the Adirondacks, he became a force behind passage of the Forever Wild statute of 1885 and the the establishment of the Park itself in 1892.
