HOME PAGE OF THE COLVIN CREW
| Welcome friends, members and visitors to our home page. It is the goal of this organization to spread the word about a relatively obscure champion of the NYS Forest Preserve who was instrumental in the creation of the Adirondack Park. Through his position as Superintendent of NYS Land Surveys (1872-1900), Mr. Colvin presented detailed surveying reports to the NYS Legislators extolling the virtues and importance of preserving that area of New York State now known as the Adirondack Park. I hope you find this site informative and look forward to seeing you on the trail following in the footsteps of our namesake.
