About us.

We started in 2026. Our name comes from the Adirondacks, but what we make doesn't stop at the Blue Line.

How we work

Nothing goes out until it has been outside with us, in the weather, for long enough to find out if you should trust it.

Much of what anyone knows about public land comes from public agencies and public-domain reports. We say which ones we use and we don't pass their work off as ours.

Corrections, questions and permission requests are welcome.

The Blue Line

The boundary of the Adirondack Park was drawn in blue ink on the state map of 1892, and it has been called the Blue Line ever since.
