In September 1901, Theodore Roosevelt’s overnight journey from Mount Marcy through Newcomb and North Creek became one of the Adirondacks’ most consequential and well-remembered moments.
As the region prepares to mark the 125th anniversary of Roosevelt’s Night Ride, the ADK Talks podcasts revisits the remarkable story with Joe Wiegand, one of the country’s leading Theodore Roosevelt reprisers, and Mary Monaghan, chair of Newcomb’s 2026 TR Weekend.
They explore the events of that historic night, Roosevelt’s enduring Adirondack connections and conservation legacy, and the special programs planned in Newcomb and North Creek for the anniversary.
