Cuomo in natural habitat (reporters must sign waivers)











More background on the location from the press office:






  1. EriK says:

    (His lawsuit, one assumes, is pending.)

    that’s a good one

  2. floydianslip says:

    Is that Burt Reynolds or Cuomo up there on that rock?

    Cuomo monologue: “Tell me I’m the Gumby Governor do you Vielkind? I see you in one of those many forms of river transport units we warned you about.”

  3. Lathamguy says:

    What’s this “we may” stuff? The media people might be slipping and sliding, donating blood to the mosquitoes, and picking off leeches, but Prince Andrew and his wingtipped minions will most likely arrive via SP helicopter or DEC off-road vehicles. Seriously, can you picture any members of his inner circle risking a chipped fingernail?

    Jimmy, please give us all the gory details!!!!!

  4. LB says:

    I want to see Sandra Lee tearing around on an ATV. All-white outfit optional (and wouldn’t stay white for long)

  5. John Quincy says:

    I do hope there will be a a game warden on site checking fishing licenses.

  6. Falconnier says:

    Really? Hunting is a “hazard”? Nice way to alienate the locals and ensure that absolutely none of them will vote for you in the next election.

    What a typical urban, arrogant, nanny-state Liberal statement….

  7. SN says:

    Actually, I thought HG was drawing a bead on any members of the State Work Force.

    Just sayin’

  8. Mr. K says:

    Falconnier – I think the most reasonable assessment to be made is that “hunting” refers to the fact that Governor Cuomo will be embracing his night-time alter ego of the Predator and Jimmy and the other reporters will be playing the roles of the prey.

  9. Upstater says:

    @Falconnier – I think Dick Cheney guaranteed that hunting will forever be included as a hazard in this type of legal waiver.

  10. Publius says:

    Thought the state was trying to save every penny?
    Double sided copies, selling off state vehicles, etc??
    How much is this rediculous junket costing taxpayers including salaries, per diems, security, guests, etc?
    What’s the cost / benefit? How many real jobs is this going to create?
    How many commissioners bringing their staff, their spouses, etc?
    How many park police, state troopers, assigned etc. ?
    Will Cuomo’s infamous non traceable message maker Blackberry work in this part of Adirondacs?
    Are motorized vehicles allowed off road in the park?
    Will the anti frackers, occupy Adirondack crowd, po’d Indians etc. show up?
    Just askin —Inquiring minds need to know ……

  11. KidsFirst says:

    Who is paying for this? I hope they arent spending DEC budget on this junkett! This year the agency canceled its educational Bring your Daughters to Work Day in Albany which teaches 150 kids about careers protecting the environment.

  12. Well, how’d it go? I saw that the anti fracking folks did actually have plans to be up around exit 29 of the Northway . . . .

    Why does it take so long for these lands to ACTUALLY BE OPENED to the public? I understand it won’t be for another couple YEARS that the public will actually be allowed into the area (legally).
