GUIDING AND "NYSOGA" IN NEW YORK STATE

Guiding has enjoyed a long and colorful history in New York State. Early surveyors and sportsmen needed help in traversing the northern wilderness, so they engaged the services of old woodsmen.

Many of these first "guides" were trappers, hunters, or loggers who "hired out" to occasional visitors for extra cash. As tourism flourished, guiding became a full-time profession and resulted in the Adirondack Guides Association being formed in 1891. Following World War II, the lure of the wilderness waned and the Association all but dissolved.

By the 1970's the public showed a renewed interest in the outdoors, but had difficulty locating reliable guides. Thus the old tradition of "guiding" was revived in 1981 when the informal New York State Outdoor Guides Association was formally incorporated.

THE PURPOSE OF NYSOGA

The purpose of NYSOGA, established by its Board of Directors, is to:

• Promote safety in guiding for guides and their clients.

• Provide educational and marketing services or NYSOGA members.

• Increase awareness of the professionalism of guiding with the public and with the land management agencies.

• Participate in legislative reform for the betterment of guides, the profession of guiding, and the health of our natural resources.
