<title>Moose callers gather in Indian lake</title>
<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/20551/20120926/moose-callers-gather-in-indian-lake</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (Sep 26, 2012) There are more moose living in the Adirondacks every year. Scientists put the population at about 800 this year. One town is hoping its local moose will be a draw for visitors: Indian Lake is already capitalizing on moose tourism with an annual Moose Festival, which includes a moose calling contest. But even with numbers up and moose sightings on the rise, nobody had reported seeing one on the first day of the Great Adirondack Moose Festival—except Bloomingdale resident Debbie Kanze.

<title>Can Albany settle the century-old Raquette Lake land dispute?</title>
<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/19915/20120601/can-albany-settle-the-century-old-raquette-lake-land-dispute</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (Jun 1, 2012) This weekend in the Hamilton County community of Raquette Lake, landowners will gather to hear a proposal that could change New York state’s constitution.For generations, their community has been in conflict with the state over land claims affecting more than 200 parcels.  Locals and seasonal residents say the property is privately owned.  But state officials, and some environmental groups, have argued that much of the land is actually part of the state forest preserve and should be kept “forever wild.”As Brian Mann reports, this is the latest effort to sort out one of the Adirondack Park’s oldest and thorniest disputes.
