Talk:Mount Marcy

Teddy Roosevelt
There should be some mention that Theodore Roosevelt was climbing Mt. Marcy when he learned that President McKinley had been shot. 64.203.237.248 06:27, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

I definetly think so, it's interesting, its historical, and its trivia. --FiftyOneWicked 06:07, 21 February 2007 (UTC)


 * According to the article on the McKinley assassination, it's not true. That article says Roosevelt was in Vermont "when word arrived", went immediately to Buffalo, and left for the Adirondacks when convinced McKinley would recover. Later, in a cabin, he heard the president had died. Unfree (talk) 20:46, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

Tahawus
The name "Tahawus", meaning cloud-splitter, is misspelled three times in the History section as "Tawahus".

Opalescent River Source
The article currently claims that the Opalescent River source is higher than Lake Tear of the Clouds, which is uncited and disagrees with the Tear of the Clouds and Opalescent articles. I also can't seem to find any maps that claim that the source is higher than about 4100 feet. If this was the case, that source would seem to be a wilderness privy.

Can anyone find a citation? TChapProctor (talk) 17:38, 2 February 2024 (UTC)


 * I could not find one and removed that statement from the article. Rocfan275 (talk) 15:06, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

Tewawe’éstha
Is this Kanienʼkéha name a derivative of the name Tahawus, and is it in common use among Kanienʼkéha speakers today? I cannot find it printed in any books prior to 2015 and all websites mentioning it online are either derived from this article or a page on the Decolonial Atlas by Karonhí:io Delaronde and Jordan Engel, which provides no translation. The Decolonial Atlas is trusted by some other secondary sources, one of which I have included in the article for now, but that is a tenuous connection as none are subject matter experts.
