SARANAC LAKE — Adirondack Wild awarded Adirondack Diversity Initiative
Director Nicole Hylton-Patterson the 2020 Wild Stewardship Award on Friday.
“We’re just getting started,” she said, saying she has a lot planned for
2021.
David Gibson, managing partner of the environmental advocacy group, said
this award is usually given to individuals doing work in the wilderness,
but this year he felt it was necessary to recognize someone working to
bring in a new, diverse generation of wilderness stewards.
