Skidmore's North Woods

Skidmore College owns a unique and valuable resource in its North Woods, a regional treasure of flora and fauna in an interesting complex of ecosystems. This area is a key aca­demic resource for the natural sciences and other fields of study; it offers con­venient and diverse out­lets for co­curricular and recreational activi­ties.

 Everyone has a favorite nook or cranny. Individuals have formed havens and hideouts in our small forest for over fifty years. They lie tucked inside our beautiful North Woods.
