Green Mountain Club | 2013 Annual Report | 2 Progress and Recovery on the Trail W e saw significant progress on major, long-sought projects and challenging financial realities that forced the club to make some tough decisions. Despite these challenges, the club remained strong, vibrant, successful, and i­nspiring. Continued progress was made toward building a footbridge and relocating the Long Trail in the Winooski River ­Valley, a project that when completed, will realize a dream first ­envisioned by the club in 1912. Speaking of club history, we worked effectively with our partners to place ourselves in a position to reintroduce hiking to Bolton Valley and restore the unique and historic Bolton Lodge, built by the Burlington ­Section in 1928 and left behind when the Long Trail was moved in the 1980s. The club also readied itself to improve the l­ocation of the Long Trail in Smugglers’ Notch with the achievable goal of eliminating the road walk altogether. In the wake of Tropical Storm Irene we were able to success­ fully rebuild Thundering Falls Boardwalk along the ­Appalachian Trail in Killington, work to restore the Long/­ Appalachian Trail where it was washed away by the Cold River in Shrewsbury, and repair and reopen the Bucklin Trail in ­Mendon with a mile-long reroute. Meanwhile, GMC volunteers continued their remarkable trail work along the Long Trail, Appalachian Trail, and Northeast Kingdom trail system. The squeeze was felt elsewhere in the club. While confronting a systemic operational ­deficit due to a decrease in public funding and the increasing cost of doing business, the club was forced to eliminate two important positions: director of ­marketing and director of conservation. These choices were not made lightly. However, we were duty-bound to take action to assure that the club can continue to live up to its obligations to its members and partners, and its trails and lands. We are pleased to report that while the budget remained tight, our overall membership continued to show strength, retaining over 10,000 members for the third straight year while our business membership grew to nearly 100 members. The club’s endowment continued to grow due to bequests and shelter endowments by GMC members and strong growth in the value of our investments. Looking forward, we intend to complete the Winooski Footbridge and trail relocation, complete trail relocations in ­Smugglers’ Notch and on Dry Ridge located in Johnson, return an observation tower to Bromley Mountain, repair older ­shelters, work to increase funding for caretakers, trail crew, stewardship, education, and land protection, improve our website and continue our growth in publications and social media, and to have fun on the trails with our friends. Thank you for all you do for Vermont’s trails. The club continued to staff caretakers at high-use locations such as Stratton Pond, Camel’s Hump, and Sterling Pond. Nevertheless, public funding continues to shrink, placing an uncomfortable squeeze on these vital programs. As a result, we were unable to staff caretakers at sites previously covered. Sincerely, Jean Haigh Will Wiquist President Executive Director Green Mountain Club | 2013 Annual Report | 3 Managing Our Trails (or are they managing us?) A fter a drenching 2011 topped with Tropical Storm Irene, we had what could only be called a drier than normal field season in 2012. Almost all of our projects were associated with recovery from the storm: some that were postponed by the storm, others to fix its wreckage, and others still that required extensive planning and were teed up for 2013 and beyond. Once we got past the awkward side effects of the unprecedented closure of the Green Mountain National Forest, our key partners the US Forest Service, Vermont Department of Forests, Parks and Recreation, and Appalachian Trail Conservancy/National Park Service stepped up and provided much-needed support, guidance, and funding to bring the Long Trail and Vermont’s Appalachian Trail much of the way back after the storm waters receded into still harrowing memory. Once the Smith property was acquired and added to Mount Mansfield State Forest, our field staff and volunteers took the first steps toward turning a dream into a footpath in the Winooski Valley. Boundary lines were marked and trail flag lines were honed in time for the first walk-throughs with GMC volunteer leaders in the fall. And the process of collecting permits for our bridge project in Bolton accelerated throughout the year. The trails would quickly fade back into the Green Mountains’ all-encompassing forest and would not exist without all the careful tending and guidance from our 1,000-strong volunteer force.

Much of the focus in recent years has been on the Winooski River Valley in an effort to secure a permanent corridor for the trail to align with the forthcoming footbridge over the river. The club continued to make progress toward purchasing two more properties to improve the route that does already have a secure corridor. GMC partnered with the Friends of Bolton Valley, Vermont Land Trust, the State of Vermont, and others to help in the conservation of a 1,144-acre parcel which includes popular Nordic ski trails. The club offered to establish and manage hiking trails within the property which was home to the Long Trail itself for about seventy years. The club also plans to renovate and manage the unique Bolton Lodge which the Burlington Section built in 1928 and may play a role in management of Bryant Camp, a historic ski cabin in the woods. We made significant progress in negotiations with the A. Johnson Company on an easement for the Long Trail along Dry Ridge north of Bear Hollow Shelter. With an agreement on this parcel, the club will be most of the way toward securing a permanent route for the trail off of West Settlement Road in Johnson. Bryant Camp he club now has seventy volunteer corridor monitors watching over 25,000 acres of Long Trail lands and 10,000 acres of Appalachian Trail lands. GMC was notified that ATV riders had returned to Davis Neighborhood in Johnson and had disabled the gate and the boulders that prevent vehicles from driving up the Davis Neighborhood Trail. GMC worked with our partners at the Department of Forests, Parks, and Recreation to repair the gate and restore the boulders. Field staff began repainting the Appalachian Trail boundary lines from the Cloudland Road in Pomfret to Route 14 in West Hartford. The crew was able to complete half of the work and will return in the summer of 2013 to finish. Boundary reclamation also occurred on the Long/Appalachian Trail between Bear Mountain and Minerva Hinchey Shelter in Clarendon. The fourth season of sustainable timber harvesting has been completed on the GMC-owned Meltzer Tract in Lowell. GMC’s work on this parcel continues to improve forest health while generating revenue from the sale of saw logs and firewood that will heat the Visitor Center and the Back 40 (field staff common quarters) over the next several winters. This project continues to demonstrate that a working landscape and hiking can be compatible. The Governor’s Energy Siting Commission released its recommendations in April. The Commission was appointed by Governor Peter Shumlin as a result of GMC’s efforts along with several other prominent conservation organizations. The club looks forward to working with the Commission and the Legislature in the coming year to increase protection of the Long Trail from industrial-scale energy developments. Director of Development Maisie Howard painting blazes during a staff work hike Green Mountain Club | 2013 Annual Report | 5 Members, Sections & Volunteers T he Green Mountain Club welcomed 1,588 new voting members, ensuring steady growth in the club’s membership. Volunteers logged a herculean 23,956 hours adopting trails, doing trail work, working in the office, serving on committees, donating their creative talents, and performing other important duties that keep the Long Trail System in top shape. One hundred sixty-four hikers completed the entire Long Trail and received end-to-end certificates. Luke O’Brien on the ­Summit of Jay Peak Major Gatherings 102nd Annual Meeting held at Jay Peak Resort was hosted by the Northeast Kingdom and Northern Frontier Sections. President Marge Fish handed the gavel to Jean Haigh, who became GMC’s forty-first president. Executive Director Will Wiquist remarked on the developing plans for the Winooski footbridge and trail relocation. Michael Chernick, Luke O’Brien, and Jean Haigh were honored with President’s Awards while former Executive Director Ben Rose was presented with an Honorary Life Membership. Annual Volunteer Appreciation Picnic: More than 100 volun- teers, members, and staff gathered at the Visitor Center to celebrate the work that volunteers had done on the Long Trail System over the past year. Long-time field volunteer Jim Sullivan won the Volunteer of the Year award for his tireless commitment to trail maintenance. Sections continue to do a great job. Our fourteen local sections hosted events and Taylor Series presentations, recruited new GMC members and volunteers, led outings and maintenance trips, and more. Snowshoe Festival 17th Annual Snowshoe Festival: Over 200 people assembled at the Visitor Center for guided snowshoe tours, children’s ­activities, educational workshops, nature walks, live music, refreshments, a raffle and a bonfire. Area businesses and GMC supporters joined in to help make this a great day. Third Annual Mud Season Egg Hunt: Children broke into two groups and searched for hidden treats—a fun, low-elevation activity during mud season that drew over 250 people. Laughing Moon Chocolates of Stowe provided the goodies and co-sponsored this successful event which attracted a younger audience, many of whom knew very little about the club and had never visited the GMC campus. Green Mountain Club | 2013 Annual Report | 6 Hiker Education Financial Report T T wenty adult outdoor skills workshops were attended by 264 people. Topics included Map and Compass, SOLO Wilderness First Aid, Cold Weather Trekking, Hiking and Yoga, and a new interactive, live broadcast ­version of our popular End-to-Ender Workshop. 21st Annual James P. Taylor Outdoor Adventure Series attract- ed well over 500 attendees. Participants enjoyed slide shows of trips to a variety of locations, from the Moosalamoo area of the Green Mountain National Forest to the Swiss Alps. Youth Education Young Adventurers Club (YAC) e­ xpanded from the founding Montpelier Section YAC to newly formed groups in the Bread Loaf and M ­ anchester sections. Successful Long Trail Bound Educator Summit held for both formal and informal educators, facilitated by Jane Dorney from the Vermont ­Geographic Alliance and John Zaber, an experienced outdoor ­educator from Sterling College. Education Outreach efforts connected GMC with approxi- mately 300 educators throughout the state teaching them about the Long Trail Bound program and the Long Trail System. Outdoor Adventure Camp: GMC staff in collaboration with Waterbury Parks and Recreation taught pre-teens Leave No Trace principles, basic safety preparedness, map and compass skills, the history of the Long Trail and Vermont natural history. Two new educational videos are available for viewing on the Long Trail Bound YouTube Channel: Basic First Aid on the Trail and Going for the GORP, a film about hiking nutrition. Group Outreach Program connected with more than 900 individuals. A mass e-mail targeting audiences such as: colleges, scouts, camps and outfitters to encourage them to submit their hiking itineraries and prepay for shelter use was sent early in the season. The response was terrific. Caretaker feedback forms to evaluate group use on the trail were revised enabling us to collect more concrete and useable data. • Fifty-plus organizations, with a total of 150 individual groups, backpacked on the Long Trail bringing over 1,000 hikers into the backcountry. • Seventeen groups and 163 volunteers participated in service trips on the Long Trail and side trails. • Long Trail Bound website had over 3,000 views with 66.7% new visitors and 33.5% returning. he Green Mountain Club finished the fiscal year ended April 30, 2013, with an operational surplus for the fifth year in a row. Net assets increased by 10% to $9.8 million. The value of our endowment increased from $3.68 million to $4.08 million, a gain of 11%, as a result of investment gains plus contributions. Assets consist of land and easements, $2.54 million (25%); endowment funds, $4.08 million (40%); headquarters, field housing, and the Lamoille River bridge, $2.32 million (23%); pledges receivable, $73,576 (1%); and cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and inventory, $1.15 million (11%). Total assets were $10.2 million, offset by liabilities of $397,444. The operational surplus was $184,981. Operational income, which includes funds released from accounts restricted to particular purposes such as the Winooski River footbridge as well as distributions from the endowment, increased by 4.3%, while operational expenses increased by 3.0%. More than 80% of the club’s operating expenditures continue to be in direct support of the Long Trail System, Northeast Kingdom Trails, education and member services. Fundraising, facilities and administration account for the rest. In conclusion, the club finished fiscal year 2013 on a sound ­financial footing, with a recovery in investment markets helping our endowment. Future years will probably p ­ resent greater challenges, as the trend of diminishing government support for trail construction and maintenance on state and federal lands appears likely to continue. However, our development efforts are bearing fruit, thanks to the generosity of our members and other supporters. It is reasonable to hope that our endowment will eventually contribute even more to our financial stability than it does today.

As the most generous contributors to our general operating fund, these donors are provided with complimentary GMC annual membership, and they receive ­copies of all new GMC guidebooks, maps, and other publications. And every autumn the GMC president and executive director host an outing and reception to share our thanks. In 2012, we gathered on a beautiful October day to visit ­Beaver Meadow Lodge in the Sterling Range, and we continued the fun back at the GMC Visitor Center with presentations about the new Northeast Kingdom trails and a historic look at the Long Trail’s route through the Winooski River Valley. It is always wonderful to spend time with this great group of GMC champions. The following members of the Ridgeline Society generously contributed $1,000 or more in fiscal year 2013 to support the GMC and ­Vermont’s Long Trail.

Over fifty members have joined the program to date. By making a planned gift, these members have made a commitment to leave a legacy to the GMC that will enable us to maintain and protect the Long Trail System for future generations. A Footbridge for the Long Trail over the Winooski River D uring the past few years, the Green Mountain Club has been raising funds to build a footbridge over the Winooski River in Bolton to finally provide a permanent and appropriate route for the trail through the valley. In all, this historic project will cost over $1.6 million. We were fortunate to have several early funders—including former GMC caretaker Daan Zwick and the State of Vermont—who helped us get this project off the ground. Since beginning our current fundraising effort, many hundreds of GMC members have contributed over $500,000 to the cause. In early 2013, we met a $50,000 challenge match in just twenty days. To each and every one of our members who have donated time, funds, or both, we say: THANK YOU! Our recent fundraising success has been truly inspiring, but we still have more to raise. At the writing of this report, we are only about $50,000 short of full project funding. Please consider a gift today to help us close this gap. Many Thanks to Our Donors The Green Mountain Club gratefully a­ cknowledges those who contributed between May 1, 2012 and April 30, 2013, in support of our general operations and/or the Winooski Crossing Project. * Individuals who have contributed to GMC for ten or more consecutive fiscal years + Individuals who have joined the Long Trail Legacy Society by making a planned gift to GMC Corporations, Foundations, and Partners $2,500-plus Anonymous (1) Adelard A. and Valeda Lea Roy Foundation Appalachian Trail Conservancy Bennington College Bromley Village Association Community Service Fund Burlington Section Burton Snowboards North America Davis Conservation Foundation Earth Share * Heart of Vermont Productions Jane B.

Long Trail News: The club’s print magazine the Long Trail News continued to be the mainstay of the club’s membership communication efforts. This top-quality publication was mailed quarterly to approximately 8,000 households and was available at GMC events and to hikers who stopped into the Visitor Center. Visitor Center continued to welcome steady flow of guests: The Visitor Center remained the hub of on-campus GMC hosted events such as Snowshoe Festival, Mud Season Egg Hunt and Volunteer Appreciation Picnic. Visitors from places such as Germany, Switzerland, England, Nova Scotia, and California travelled to Vermont to hike our trails. Our knowledgeable hiker center staff assisted over 4,500 visitors by providing advice on trails in the area and around the state and by answering their questions about the the Long Trail, the role of GMC and its important place in Vermont history. Online audiences grow: The club continues to have a strong social media community with more than 6,000 Facebook and more than 2,000 Twitter followers. eBlaze the club’s electronic newsletter reached more than 8,000 active email addresses with about thirty percent of recipients opening the e-mails monthly. Publications Fiscal year 2013 was a year of transition and future development for the publications program. With people migrating to a fully electronic platform of media consumption, the Publications Committee, in conjunction with members of the Marketing Committee, conducted significant research into the ­options available in the marketplace. Significant progress was also made on printed materials. • Eleven individual downloadable hikes were released with moderate success • GMC has the ability to release both eBook and print versions of all future books • A request for proposal for the creation of a mobile application was created and released (Due to cost constraints this platform was temporarily tabled.) • Winter Hiking Guide to Vermont, End-to-Ender’s Guide, Mount Mansfield and Worcester Range Map expected to be released in 2014 • Number of GMC Publications: 17 • Units Sold FY 13: 14,736 • Downloadable Hikes: 11 had another year of reduced utility bills thanks to our renewable energy systems. We heated our Visitor Center and field staff common quarters including all of our domestic hot water for a full year with only ten cords of firewood. Our solar electric system generated 46,716.2 kilowatt hours of clean electricity that was sent into the grid—the equivalent annual consumption to ten average Vermont households.

GMC Meeting Hall Rentals: Rental business for the Meeting Hall did very well in 2012. Our space has become a popular place for many organizations to meet—especially State ­Agencies since the State Complex in Waterbury was lost to Tropical Storm Irene.
