Construction progressing on 34-mile Adirondack Rail Trail in New York

On Aug. 23, dozens of recreationists attended a public meeting held by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation to update the public on developments of the Adirondack Rail Trail.
The meeting was held at the Adirondack Park Agency headquarters in Ray Brook.
Currently under construction, the Adirondack Rail Trail is a future 34-mile recreational path being constructed on a former railroad corridor that will run from Tupper Lake to Lake Placid. It is a DEC-managed segment of the Remsen-Lake Placid Travel Corridor, the remainder of which remains as railroad and is managed by the Department of Transportation, 119 miles in all.

Wisconsin farmed CWD-positive deer in Washburn County to start bait ban in four counties?

A recent Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP) press release sent shudders through northwest Wisconsin with news that a farmed deer positive for CWD was found on a Washburn County deer farm.
While DATCP didn’t name the deer farm with the infected deer, DNR Wildlife Biologist Nancy Christel, of Spooner, confirmed the deer is from a farm once called Thun-Deer Trophy Whitetails, a 150-acre hunting ranch with about 300 deer in southeast Washburn County near Birchwood. An online search indicates the property may have changed ownership and name in the last few years and is now an LLC registered in Minnesota.
