We are happy to be sharing another book by author
Erik Schlimmer. In past issues we have introduced
you to two of his books, Trans Adirondack and Blue
Line to Blue Line. This issue features his latest work,
which captures over twenty years of photographing
remote parts of the Adirondacks. Erik Schlimmer has
hiked over 10,000 miles in the Adirondacks. Color Re-
mote: Bushwhacking the Adirondack Mountains is a
hefty three pounds and contains 321 images of sel-
dom seen areas. This new coffee table book shows
off some of the best of the Adirondacks, and takes
you into the "backcountr y of the backcountr y," as the
author is quoted as saying.
Only 1,000 copies will ever be published. Each one
is numbered and signed, much like other works of
art. Copies of Color Remote, which retail for $40, are
available only through the websites of Friends of the
Trans Adirondack Route (transadk.com) and Beech-
wood Books (beechwoodbks.com). If you love seeing
the Adirondacks through the lens of someone who is
deeply passionate about the Park, and goes deep to
explore it, then we think you will enjoy Color Remote.
