Hidden History: Native People & the Catskill Mountains
For centuries, Native People traveled through the Catskill Mountains on well-used paths and visited select locations for hunting elk, beavers, passenger pigeons and other game. By the 18th century, secluded valleys near the headwaters of Catskill Creek, Schoharie Creek and the Delaware River became a refuge for families retreating from Euro-American settlement in the Hudson Valley. This presentation will explore the identity of these communities and tell their story. Presented by ethnoecologist Justin Wexler of Wild Hudson Valley.
